in out trays; so I know where everything is going, will I use them
You know those handheld scanners? gonna get one for uni; maybe file all of my notes no matter how scruffy and may even at least have proof I did work even if its just an image of a rough essay.
Also a tablet; I dont have a second screen so this would be okay for referencing from, this could be a waste of money though maybie (I dont know).

Hmm I never had organization problems. I had a notebook per class. Sometimes two depending on the class (calculus always had at least two notebooks per semester).
I use Google calendar to keep track of due dates, setting up alerts for 1 week and two days before each due date.
What organization troubles do you have exactly?

I also prefer(red) A5 to A4 and used a mechanical pencil over a pen, easier to neaten up notes after the fact.

Is taking pictures with your phone as good as a portable scanner?
Yeah I find that a fine liner makes me generally neater and more organised, im not really sure how that comes about actually, color coordinated folders are a good idea too.

I don't know the quality of portable scanners, it might be high compared to a phone but a good app only costs a few quid at most. the app should be able to neaten your captures and deal with curved pages of books and journals.
