In less than a month, alarm clocks will be going off early, students will once again sit in class for six hours and assignment will be…assigned — all of which can only mean one thing: back-to-school is just around the corner. While some of you may be excited to return to school, others may not be too thrilled. To get you in the scholastic spirit, here are three great apps that are a must for students.

inClass: This app lets you have all your coursework at your fingertips. If you’re permitted to use phones or tablets in class, use inClass to make audio or visual recordings of the teacher’s lesson, type out notes and take pictures of handouts. The best part is that all this material can be shared with your classmates through Facebook and iTunes.

Quizlet: If you’re one to study for tests using flashcards, Quizlet is the perfect app for you. All your flashcards can now be stored on your phone or online. With four different ways to study them and two game modes that make memorizing information fun, Quizlet will bring you one step closer to academic success!

StudiezPro: When a regular agenda isn’t enough to keep you on track, StudiezPro comes to the rescue! Enter all your homework, extracurricular activities and class schedules and the app will send you reminders for due dates and appointments. You can also keep a log of all the grades you get back so you’ll always know how well you’re doing. 

Back-to-school has never been so electronic!
