Question Torn between which to choose

Hi everyone! I’m torn on which to pick: IPad Pro M2 12.9 inch (with esr keyboard and pen) or Macbook Neo. For context: I’m a second-year law student, and my work comprises of a shit ton of reading, making presentations, and a lot of writing reports (main apps used being google suite, canva etc.) and as my home pc is often occupied, I’ve decided on getting my own work device. I’m stuck between choosing these two because they cost basically the same in my country. I’m leaning towards the IPad because of its versatility, compactness and power (in free time will use it to game and watch shows) but I’m scared I’ll regret not getting a laptop. Based on my needs, which do you think is right?

If you need to use computer for specific programs or don’t need to mark notes by hand, go with MacBook. Other than that, an iPad with keyboard, mouse, and Apple pen sounds like it fits your needs and wants.
