Hi i just wanted to find out, it is illegal (against uoft rules) to purchase past test from other students. I am feeling quite inclined to purchase past test from the first time from someone for one of my courses since there is Absolute no past exam\/test on the uoft repository.<\/p>\n

hey there,<\/p>\n
not as far as i can tell. at least, i can’t find any explicit rule<\/a> prohibiting it<\/a>. it seems that viewing of the exam<\/a> is pretty carefully monitored, though, so i would be – if not suspicious, just careful<\/em> – of what you’re buying, and from whom.<\/p>\n also, i don’t presume to know your situation or how your program runs or anything, but here’s a friendly tip from aska: try to exhaust the study options presented to you by your professor before seeking alternative materials.<\/p>\n if you got practice exams, textbook questions, passages\/articles you need to focus on, lecture slides, etc. then become expert in those BEFORE seeking more help. because (and i’m just gonna put this bluntly here) sometimes these people are just out to make money. that doesn’t necessarily mean they don’t have something to sell you, but it also doesn’t mean you don’t have to be unwary.<\/p>\n cheers,<\/p>\n aska<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi i just wanted to find out, it is illegal (against uoft rules) to purchase past test from other students.
