For many of us, taking notes in class usually doesn’t go over so well. Mostly because we are sleeping, browsing facebook, or hung over from the night before. Still though, getting the notes is something that has to be done if you want to pass a college course. Lucky for you (and myself), there is help!
Below is a collection of great websites where you can find the notes your classmate took while you were sleeping. Check them out!
1. GradeGuru.com
GradeGuru.com is a notes sharing website where you can find course-specific notes. You can easily invite your friends and classmates to join so you can all benefit from the note sharing. A cool thing about GradeGuru is, when other users download your notes, you earn reward points which are redeemable for cash.
2. ShareNotes.com
Sharenotes.com is another awesome way to find notes for a class. You can browse notes by school, subject, class, and professor, so it is easy to find the notes you are looking for. They have also made it very quick and easy to download the notes once you find them. Another great feature of sharenotes.com is that you earn reward points everytime you download, post, or sell notes. These reward points are redeemable for items such as iPods, camcorders, gift cards and more!
3. WiseCampus.com
WiseCampus.com is built around student involvement, and is driven by users submitting and downloading notes. Like Gradeguru, you can earn financial rewards by submitting your notes into the community. Be sure to check out their rewards catalog to see what you can redeem your points for.

Conclusion
Well, now that you have these great resources, you can feel better about sleeping during your professors lectures. (That last statement was mostly a joke. You shouldn’t get in the habit of relying only on sites like these, but they definitely are very useful when you are unable to take notes.)
These are 3 of the best sites for online note sharing that I know of. The great thing about them is that they are always growing, and you can be a part of that by submitting some of your own notes. There is nothing better than getting rewarded by helping your classmates out by uploading your class notes.

Hello Dan great website I and another young entrepreneur like yourself just launched Paint Sprayer which is a great site for on-line college note sharing amongst other things. Check it and include it for your checklist if you want its growing fast and has a great deal of fantastic functions! To not point out it had been started by actual students in contrast to some of the other people you outlined. Cheers and many thanks for operating such an excellent site!
Dan Northern
No problem Angela. Thanks for providing such a great tool for students! I am going to check out the GradeGuru citation manager for sure.

Thanks for the post and the awesome website. Just discovered it a few hours ago and I haven't stopped browsing the articles.
If this is within the rules, I would also like to mention that there's another all-around college site that I've recently found called uzackly.com. They also let you share notes, along with networking classmates in a few other ways.
Dan Northern
Thanks for the compliment vlad, good to hear you like it!
I just watched the uzackly.com demo video. It looks pretty cool. I'll keep my eyes open and watch for the site to come out of beta.

Hi Dan great site I and another young entreprenuer like yourself just launched notelog.com which is a great site for online college note sharing among other things. Check it out and add it to your list if you want its growing fast and has a lot of great features! Not to mention it was started by actual students unlike some of the others you listed. Cheers and thanks for running such a great site!
Dan Northern
Mike, I added it to the list under "additional sites". Good luck growing the site, it seems to have a lot of potential.
Mike
Thanks Dan. I appreciate the support!
Dan Northern
No problem. I added you to a new site, CollegeDrop.com as well. It's a college resource directory.

I do a blog on individual rights and politics on college campuses; do you think the legitimacy of online note-sharing would be a good topic for a post?

studyblue.com is also an amazing note sharing and flashcard generation website.
Dan Northern
Thanks Lizzy. I’ll add it to the list

I like using evernote for note taking especially since it has a built in ocr software that will capture any words within pictures that you may want to include with your notes. It's also able to sync over multiple devices.

Wow! Online notes is very good innovation of technology. This technology would be greatly beneficial to people in online universities and taking up their schools online. I agree that evernote is the easiest one to use.
Olive Sommers
Thank you for listing all those sites. A great help for students taking their courses through online schools, isn't it?
Chariz@Online School
In this time of technology driven era, we really have to maximize every opportunity that technology gives us, like these online notes. These would really benefit students in online schools, they could be more efficient in attending to their lessons, plus, it lessens utilization of papers. Less paper, less trees cut down. Very efficient and environmental friendly.

I must be living under a rock because I have never heard of any of these sites nor did I know that sites like this even existed! This is great stuff, essential for any college kid, wow,
Kathy Ink
Get resources for those students who missed class due to illness or other unforeseen circumstances, but it can't be as beneficial as actually going to class. You have to have a lot of faith in those who are uploading the notes!

Your web site is generally amongst the the best . On the whole impression of the page is just fabulous .

There are also free notes on various topics offered in PDF format put up by NYU and MIT which is widely used. Give them a try.

Wow, you really opened my eyes! I’ve been using Evernote too (glad to hear I’m not SO far behind everyone else), but I had no idea about all these other options. I’m a ‘back to school late in life’ crowd, therefor so many of these things are just mindblowing to me. I wish I had a fraction of these resources back when I went through undergrad the first time around about 25 years ago! Oh well… better late than never, right? Thanks for helping me out considerably!

Thanks for the 3 note sharing sites you reviewed. I love the concept of “reward points” in order to incentivise others to take good, clear notes and then share them with their fellow students.

mensagens is a college-based website, where you can buy and sell lecture notes, reading notes and study guides. Additionally it provides individual students with the opportunity to directly connect with the peers in each of their university courses for purposes such as; forming study groups, exchanging appropriate material such as their own interpretation of notes or study guides, finding peer to peer mentorship or tutoring services, and getting to know their fellow classmates.
Its free to use however, its only available to the University of Arizona for the Fall 08 and it will expand to 15 schools in the Spring 09 semester. Write info@notehall.com if you want it at your school next!

It’s a shame these sites didn’t exist a few years ago when I was still a student.

WiseCampus.com would have been very useful for me when I took up law. I can’t take down notes all the time and I find it very challenging to look for ways to approach my classmates.

The increased accessibility to course specific notes through networking sites bring more benefits than initially predicted. It is a given that the student traffic flow would be desirable for marketing and advertisement campaigns, and on the other hand students may benefit directly by attaining notes they lack due to various reasons. Moreover, it gives student an alternative to either save on purchasing notes from the college printshop; or seek to print directly from home. This gives way to cost savings with regards to ink cartridges which is a ‘by-product’ of these collection of these advantageous note sharing webpages.
Dean Waller
Good recommend sites here. Before you go start, it is wise to find out extensively how one service differs from the other. ShareNotes is one of the most popular methods but you’ll have to pay to get notes.
Olive Sommers
I love it! Finally some sites where you can save your notes and have easy access to them from anywhere.
Olivia Unise
On all these sites do you have to pay? Are any free to use?

That Sharenotes site looks interesting, but I can’t find any British Universities on there… does anyone know if there are any plans to get any more universities on there?
Or is there a way for a student to set up their own university section?
Thanks, Peter

I love the interface of WiseCampus.com. Very cool. I guess some sites are free, others require fee. These tools are very useful for students.
