Should I get 128gb (A10) or 64gb (A12) ipad for FOUR years of college?

I dont know which ipad to buy.

I am going to college for FOUR YEARS as a nursing student. I want an ipad because I want to go paperless. I will be using the ipad to download slideshows and notes from my professors, and I will write directly on them or use ms onenote (or goodnote 5).

I wont be using the ipad to download netflix or any other apps. The ipad’s main use is to save documents and write notes.

I have a macbook which I use to write essays, but I won’t be transferring stuffs from my ipad to macbook because I want all my school lectures in my ipad. Just essays on my macbook.

My question is...

1) should I get the 64gb (A12 bionic chip, more expensive) or 128gb (A10 bionic chip, cheaper than the 64gb)?

2) Will either be enough for four years?

3) Will the new or old processor chip matter after four years?

iPad mini, iOS 9

Well sense you’re just using it for note taking and saving school documents, I recommend getting the iPad with 128 GB with the A10 chip. It is slower, but sense you’re just using it for school I think you’ll be just fine. Take my advice, I use a iPad 6th generation (which has a A10 chip and 32GB of storage) at my school and I’ve been using it for about 2 years and it has done everything I need it to do for school. Hope this helped, and good luck in school!
