    Geek Squad BackPacks Commercial: Note Taking Software Isn’t Legit
    http://www.gottabemobile.com/2011/0...s-commercial-note-taking-software-isnt-legit/


    Im in school and i attend a small lecture(30 kids) in most of my classes I want a program that can take notes, I can do corrections to "train" the program, somewhat, but I dont want to sit there taking notes like a nut.
    I prefer just to pay attention in class, not be a secretary and take dictation.

    Hi

    Yes Dragon Naturally Speaking is the app, and tbh I dont know how well these apps will work in a classroom as classrooms can have background chatter and also you could be a distance from the speaker, which is why you see these speech to text apps come or need a headset microphone or your notebook.netbook to have a half decent mic, which most dont unless you are close to the mic.

    Could try Evernote as it takes voice notes and have a trial with it as its free, and see if it will do what you need.
