Default Getting a Laptop soon..

Anyone with a hint of computer knowledge?

I'd like to get opinions on wether a MacBook is really worth it. Or should I go with something else

Help pls

How would I go about doing that? Do I buy different high end items and put them together to make one badass PC or what? Tbh I'm computer illiterate, like I obvy know how to use one, but as far as knowing about processors, and basically the mechanics, I'm lost.

The MacBook Pro is great, but there are better ways to spend that money unless you're going to be making art or music or playing video games with it. And in those cases, you would be better off getting a good desktop.

If your computer illiterate just buy a laptop

Something with dedicated graphics and 4 GB of ram or more
I7 processor if you can afford it

It's mostly for school tbh, I'm going to college and still debating on wether or not to do it online, that way I can still hold my full time job and get my 40 hours. Or take classes and drop in hours. So idk yet.

Edit: I got close to a g to spend. If that narrows it down, did some research at bestbuy but it didn't tell me much.

I'm not gonna speak much on it, but with the situation I'm in, online college seems the best route, as I'm on my own and trying to be self sufficient, I could be just fine without going tbh but i want to go more for the learning experience. And a degree is just a perk.
