FailureInLife Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 should i sell my physics notes for $100? (or need them for mcat?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerena Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Personally I found my lecture notes were not useful and didn't overlap that well. The prep books were on topic and were all I needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestar10 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 If you can find someone to pay 100 for them. lol. Notes work because they summarize YOUR OWN thoughts. Someone buying notes might as well read the textbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futurefamilydoc Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I didn't use my physics notes for my studying, found there was extra stuff in them not needed for the MCAT. If I were you I would just photocopy your notes, sell the originals, and keep a copy to have around if you need them to look up anything (provided I understand your situation correctly).

Intrepid86 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 i was just wondering, basically a prep company offered me some money for my physics lecture notes (basically the powerpoint slides with annotations to solutions of problems and stuff). What's their name? This clearly isn't a legit one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NutritionRunner Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 If the powepoint slides were provided by your prof, they aren't yours to sell - they are the intellectual property of the prof. If you were just selling notes that you took, that didn't include the prof's slides, that would be different. But slides created by someone else are NOT yours to sell. Hopefully a future physician would realize that it is not ethical to sell intellectual property that does not belong to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nino Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 I think the prep company just wants your prof's powerpoints, not really your annotations per se.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree... unless the OP created the slides, they shouldn't be selling it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
