What should I buy for sixth form? iPad Pro 12.9 inch or a Macbook?

I'm going into sixth form this year and looking for a device in which I can use for my school work (to replace filing everything and having loose sheets and pencil cases etc).

Hi, I have noticed that the date on this is a little early and this may not help now, but I will give my opinion anyway. I am currently in sixth form I always bring my Macbook (12 inch) with me because it is extremely portable and all my textbooks can be accessed online. Mine can also last for up to 16 hours so you wont run out of battery, which can be a problem with the I Pad. However I do 3 sciences and I therefore have a lot of drawings to do. I find that this is where the laptop can be limited but you can get the apple pencil with the pro. It depends on whether your subjects involve a lot of diagrams. I hope this helps, though I doubt it will. 🙂
