I am just finishing up my first semester of nursing school. I will pass with a low B. I have noticed the entire semester that a lot of girls in my class run to the upperclassmen to ask them what they remember from the tests before we take them. Some of them even get full study guides the upperclassmen have used on their exam when they took it. These girls have been doing significantly better than the rest of us, an dt is seriously frustrating. I don't think it's fair that some of us have to do all of our own work and study non-stop just to get mediocre grades, while others get word for word questions and answers on the test, already filled out study guides, and tips and secrets about each test just because they know an upperclassmen. How do i deal with this?
I don't consider it cheating, I can't even remember the tests that I took at the beginning of this semester but I do have underclassman who do ask for tips. I advise them on how to study and which books may be more beneficial for study . I do not consider it cheating unless they are giving question and answers to the test and also bear mind that teachers can also change the test. Like I have said to similar posts , I think the original poster needs to mind her business.

Every school has those students. I think you're just sorry you don't have access to those notes. Worry about you, who cares what or how the other students are doing. Don't waste time worrying unless what they're doing affects you directly.
