I've been searching for an academic planner that isn't too bulky but also streamlined, where I don't have to do a lot of the set up. This fits the bill for me. I really enjoy the paper thickness, it's sturdy enough while still being pliable. It's thick enough that I don't leave writing marks on the page beneath, but my highlighters do bleed through to the other side a little bit (not an issue for me at all). Having the semester template already done is really going to help me in my last year of university. The weekly layouts are super helpful, it's quite nice not being restricted by lines.
My only gripes are the monthly calendar is on one page, when I'm used to having it over two pages, which makes it a little small - this is a personal preference. Also, I have late classes this semester and needed to do some fenagling to make my semester fit on the course schedule - again, another me problem for having taken classes both in the morning and in the evening.
All in all, I'm loving this planner. It well accommodates my academic, work and personal lives. I know that I am going to very much enjoy colouring those mandalas when I'm bored in a lecture.
