As we all know and remember, it is hard to be a student. Arguably, it is significantly harder to study today than it used to be because science keeps churning up new data that students must learn and there is so much information to process.

However, progress comes with its boons. In the 21st century, you are free (and even expected) to use cell phones and laptops in the class. Therefore it is essential to find the right software that will help you in your studies.

On top of word processors and student planners, there are many other helpful tools. We’ve tested and gathered only the best!

Study Hippo

If you ever thought of getting research paper help, you will definitely benefit from Study Hippo. Most students struggle with their assignments because they aren’t confident enough about their abilities and don’t have a good example of how a particular type of work should be written.

Study Hippo has a huge database of samples available by subscription, so if you ever wondered, for example, how a descriptive essay should look like, it is a thing for you. Their database grows every week and includes collections of flashcards that have proven to be a very effective self-learning tool.

If you don’t think that your budget can handle subscriptions just yet, you can use their plagiarism checker for free and make sure the essay you have written is 100 percent original and not too heavy with quotes.

Wunderlist

Even if you are not a calendar person, the college will make you one. Students simply must have a planner to keep on top of things and remember about deadlines, tests, and examinations.

Wunderlist is great for making timetables, checking out school assignments that have been dealt with, scheduling notifications and keeping the contact information of your classmates and instructors.

On top of that, Wunderlist supports cooperation. This means several Wunderlist users can edit the common daily schedule. This is a crucial element for productive work on group projects and coordination of study group meetings.

Besides, Wunderlist is very user-friendly with a ramified but logical system of lists and folders. For example, you may have lists for Grocery Shopping, Chores, and Travel Planning that are all gathered in the Household folder. When you set up an account for the first time, the app even suggests a few lists to begin with, for example, Work, Private, and Movies to Watch.

One Note

This one is a jewel in Microsoft’s crown. This app is available for laptops, iOS, and Android mobile devices and is extremely helpful for every student in high school or college.

With its help, you can take notes on mobile devices more efficiently, share them with your classmates, collaborate on notes together, and feature sound clips, links, videos, and any other pieces of information into your lecture notes.

It synchronizes across different devices and you can also access your notes via the web if you choose to store your data in the cloud.

Edmodo

Educators’ and students’ need to cooperate grows every year. Edmodo is one of the best instruments for this, enabling teachers to gather assignments, handouts, notes, or other key materials in one place that everybody can access.

This is also helpful for students who can find all the lecture materials, notes, and additional media on the website even if they missed the class.

If your instructor doesn’t use Edmodo, you can suggest this tool to them and your entire class will thank you!

Quizlet

No list of student tools is complete without this one. Here you can find flashcards, quizzes, and games to test your knowledge on any subject and simply have fun while learning.

Quizlet boasts a large collection of study materials on everything from Biology to Trigonometry to foreign languages. But most importantly, it also supports the creation of custom-made flashcards and tests, so you can implement the spaced repetition technique for your revisions and prepare more efficiently for important exams.

This is a free studying resource with paid access to premium content.
