Super easy verification, you just need a .edu email. No studentbeans or id.me! Thanks OP!

Even if you don't want to use Gemini, this gives you Google one (and up to 2tb storage space) so it's useful for anybody with an edu address. Thanks!

Damn really wish this was Claude. Gemini can't run a lot of the generated code in-browser and you have to download it to run it. Feels super clunky compared to Claude.

I though "Gemini Advanced" was called "Apollo"
No it isn't. That's what they were going to name it in the beginning, but they changed their mind to Gemini

The best LLM ever. Much better than ChatGPT. Much less hallucination. The only downside of Gemini compared to ChatGPT is that the output is not as "pretty" as ChatGPT, but that's okay for me as long as the actual content of the output is far better.
hmm, I ran it side by side with chatgpt and its worse for me when it comes to school work.
I'm using gemini 2.5 pro.

Bummer that this does not work on many types of Workspace accounts (such as GSuite Legacy Free Edition)

I don't need AI, I can do everything myself just fine
Can you one shot coding simple projects in minutes? Can you summarize books in seconds? Can you do deep research on sub PhD level on what ever topic with the whole internet at your desposal in minutes? How about do math proofs

Any simple way to get more out of AI than just prompts?
Use agents and mcps

Quote from babygdav :
One way to gauge how much data harvesting is to look at the permissions list for each AI app.
Eg. Meta's latest AI app wants to suck up every last secret from your phone with a dizzying list of permissions, yet others like Anthropic want just a handful.
....
Anyways, free Gemini isn't "amazing" unless you're pushing thru books upon books and really trying to graduate with a d.u.n.c.e degree by making AI do all your homework.
Easy enough to sign up to the main ones - perplexity, grok, anthropic, DeepSeek, and use it with the free CoPilot on Windows and Edge.
This is because Not one AI always gets it right, so using a few is the way to shortcut work with correct answers.
I dare you. "Using the wholesale bulk prices of rice and orange chicken for restaurants, calculate the cost of goods for a plate of 11 oz of rice and 6 oz of orange chicken." You'll immediately see which AI are "idiots" doing this simple work task.... Most can't even identify bulk packages of frozen orange chicken for food service....
Use the thinking models instead. Also, it's a tool, not to answer dumb questions. You treat it as a tutor and ask "how does this work, I thought x works like this" and it'll fill in the gaps.

So, is this Google's way of telling college students to cheat with AI? 🤣
It's a tool just like searching the web or a calc. You use it to fill in your gaps in knowledge or role play as a tester. Ask, "how does x work, I thought it works like x" and it'll fill in the gaps. Or "role play as a tester and rate my answers, ask about x at a undergrade level"

Quote from hunterbush1 :
I have a gemini subscription (among several others) and Gemini ROCKS for transcription (try it with very difficult names and pharmaceutical drugs, its wildly accurate) and callbacks to your own data. Outside of that, I find that it lags behind its competition for more complex prompts, and the image generation just got a lot better-but was lousy on its earlier releases. Medical personnel absolutely love it, as long as they're allowed to use it. It's hidden strength seems to be using your own data (i'm an old google apps for business user) and keeping you on track. I think they wanted speed when they released it and now they're adding complexity. It's still very fast.
It's on the right side of like every single google thing and I don't like that.

The advanced subscription is worth it at 20 bucks/month, but there are better options- you cannot beat Free though! Huge advantage as I found the "free" gemini to be lacking.
Change the model you're using to the thinking models. Flash is for quick, knee jerk responses, like asking a busy human

If Account A is the manager on a "family" plan, and my "daily driver" is Account B, I read that only plan managers get the advanced features? It used to be a way to "churn" free trials by redeeming them and adding your primary account as a family member. Trying to get any insight on the best way to cut the "family" and redeem with my primary?
I'd rather Account B have the features than Account A.

How does cancelation work, can we cancel now or has to be a reminder for 2026?
Cancelled immediately through Google Play store. Subscription ends in 2026, it tells you before you confirm too.

So for us alumni, what will you do when it says it will reverify by August 31st? It sounds like it will ask you for your schedule or tuition bill
