Need a drawing tablet for school. What do you recommend
SteveJenkins:
the bamboo is outdated, get an intuos if you're looking for the Wacom quality but cant afford a cintiq, otherwise if those are still out of the price range everyone elses suggestions are good too
nibs are literally just plastic bitties so don't worry about buying those but I haven't had a good experience with parblo stuff, tablet practically fell apart within a couple of months. look into it if you want but don't skimp on quality

before this, i had a wacom intuos ctl480 which only cost me like $50, but there are probs newer ones now for the same price point, and defo better ones if you can go higher

How accurate is it?
Conan:
intuous series (4 and up) is really good in terms of accuracy, but is a bit on the pricy side, and the latest models tend to be big.

no issues there. the parallax (distance between surface of glass and the image) is the only thing you may get thrown off by, but i don't even notice it anymore. you can calibrate it like any other pen display type dealio too, so you shouldn't have many issues with the pen going anywhere other than where you put it
sorrel:
I think surface tablets are nice for drawing and doing basic school work on
