The license is great because it permits all students & staff to a free download – the software isn't just a useful tool for disabled students eligible for DSA funding, it’s useful to all.

“In MindGenius Online, it’s simple for me to take notes as the lecture is going on. I use the intended learning outcomes for each lecture as the template for my map, and then as the lecturer talks I can place the key statements linked in with the learning outcomes.”

“I have used mind maps to take notes in lectures since my first day at medical school. I initially started by using pen and paper. But often, like many unorganised students, I found that I would lose them, and get tea stains all over them. My other key issue, as doctors are known for, was my horrendous handwriting. Mind mapping on my computer resolved both of these issues.”
“The workload for medical students is renowned for being excessive, but MindGenius Online has proved invaluable. From taking my lecture notes, managing my studies for an exam, collating research, completing my dissertation and collaborating on group tasks, MindGenius Online has been able to handle it all. I even managed some time to have a social life.”
