Weird, silly kind of pride?

I frequently buy used textbooks from FB pages, but I buy books ONLY not notebooks/reports.

To and only to me, buying notebooks/reports is somewhat like: “You can’t even write good notes yourself? Shame on you!”
Yes, I am quite confident in my note taking and lab reports skills…and also I like to do this kind of thing myself. Feels like it’s a cop out to buy notes and old reports?(also waste of money to me)

Is it just me to have this weird pride?

What you call “weird pride,” others might call “integrity,” lol.

Also if you take the notes yourself, it’s been scientifically proven that you learn the information better. So good for you!

People sell old lab reports?!

They do.

Some people even bypass the notes and just go straight for the fake degree!

Buying and selling old notebooks and lab reports, especially the lab reports is cheating and should be reported to the school.
