It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

There's quite a difference between open book and just using other people's notes. The whole point of taking notes is that the process of note taking helps with learning and understanding. Looking at someone else's notes is basically pointless for anything but cheating.
Memorization is garbage, but if you don't have your own notes for the open book test you probably never actually studied the book in the first place.
The comment OP posted was about med students using their texts during online tests
I thought the comment was about med students not reading their own text books and just looking at the OPs notes?
The thread was about:
A med student who took detailed notes and shared them with a select few classmates
Finding out that other students also got access to those notes
Getting upset when no students were willing to share notes or help her in a class she was having trouble with despite her notes helping them in other classes
And refusing to share notes at all as a result
Side note: at the conclusion we find out many of those students were cheating, and that's why they were doing well at classes OP was failing, and thus they were not positioned to help her regardless
