Gifts for 1st Year of Dental School

[Renaissance Man]

My girlfriend will be graduating from college and starting dental school this summer. I was hoping to get her an awesome tangible (and possibly useful) gift for her dental school years. I was maybe thinking the new iPad, but I don't know how much use that would get. Thoughts?

Instead of shelling out ~half a grand on a toy/gadget, how about a vacation together before school starts.

If you really want to get something tangible then I guess an iPad is fine. I think iPad 2 is going for a good discount because of the new one coming out.

Do you think that iPad can be useful for dental school or it's more of a toy?

I agree. We have been saving for a trip together for the last two years though and will be going after graduation. Can't really use that as a gift now haha.

I think it is very useful in dental school. especially if the school is big on using power points. being able to use the stylus to write and draw on diagrams and pictures is very helpful. but is it absolutely necessary, nope.

Don't buy anything. Chicks like real men who don't buy them gifts.

Get her an apron for the kitchen.

LOL!

If you decide to get her the iPad, I would highly suggest this app to go with it!

You could buy her scrubs for her school if she needs them for first year or a nice piece of jewelry to wear for her white coat ceremony =)

Thanks for all of the replies (both serious, and gag ones too). She recently asked for a nice purse/bag for dental school....kind of boring IMO, but I am not the one using it! I think my dilemma is solved, just wanted to let you kind dental people know so that you can all sleep well tonight.
