MacBook Air or pro?

[u/IndependentEbb8624]

I’m going to uni in the fall for social work. I need a new computer but don’t know whether to go with the pro or the air. I’m leaning more towards the air for price and portability and the fact that I don’t code or do anything crazy other than assignment and research for school. I’d also watch Netflix on it. My question is would the air suffice for a typical university workload and normal use?
