From Fog to Clarity

Bobby, a medical student at the University of Oxford, struggles with anxiety and depression, which often manifest as brain fog during lectures which made it very difficult to stay on top of things.

It was incredibly challenging for Bobby to keep pace with the material and take effective notes.  Pre-lecture preparation involved hours spent trying to integrate lecture slides into her notes, only to fall behind during class, scrambling to capture both slide content and the lecturer's words.

Genio Notes stepped in to clear the fog.

“Everything looks more organised and if I do want to double check something, I can go back into the recording and it's linked up to the slide that it was on so I can precisely find the information I want.”

Genio Notes' streamlined interface allowed Bobby to seamlessly import slides and effortlessly organise her notes alongside the relevant content. With everything neatly structured, she could quickly reference specific information, eliminating the anxiety of missing crucial details.

“Rather than panicking about writing everything down, I'm actually able to sit there, listen, absorb the information and then ask questions if I need to.”

But the true transformation came when Bobby realised she no longer had to frantically transcribe every word. Instead, she could actively listen, engage with the material, and ask clarifying questions, knowing that she had a comprehensive record of the lecture at her fingertips.

“I do think it's transformed how I take my notes, and it's improved my confidence being a student and being able to actually focus my time on learning the content, rather than figuring out how best to cope with the difficulties I have.”

Genio Notes empowered Bobby to shift her focus from coping mechanisms to active learning, ultimately reducing her stress levels and improving her overall academic experience.
