Do I need a tablet for uni?

Hi!
I'm going to be starting medicine this September and I've seen a lot of student use tablets for note taking. I'm the type of person who prefers pen and paper especially during revision. Is there any other need for it? I mean I can buy it if I need to but it's better to keep costs low and use the money else where. I'm kinda conflicted if I need to buy one.
Any advice?
Thank you

Wait until you actually get to Uni and get one if you think you need it.
You wont 'need' one from day 1.

Hey OP,

Exactly this, everyone works differently and if you think you would prefer to use a tablet when you start you can quickly pick this up.
