1. Evernote for Taking Notes & Storing Documents

Cost: Free Basic Account or Paid Premium Account ( $5/month or $45 per year for more space)

Keeping your notes organized is a challenge in school when you are attending or watching lecture after lecture and saving countless files of notes to your laptop. With Evernote, you can effectively organize all your notes and have a place for everything.

You can either take notes directly in the app or scan handwritten notes and handouts to add them to a folder. If you have classes where you can take videos of lectures or presentations, you can also upload those videos to your app.

The Evernote app makes it easy to store any kind of documentation whether it be notes, paperwork receipts, bills or payments. You can also make calendars and set a to-do list to keep you on track.
