Couse Hero?
Anyone use this site before?
http://www.coursehero.com
I was googling a syllabus from a Mac course and it took me here and they showed a bunch of documents for a course I was looking at. Test reviews, study sheets, syllabus, etc.
I think it's a pay site unless you upload. I would be interested in paying for it if I knew it wasn't a scam.
Anyone try it before?
thanks,

i think these sites are great + legit but the real course hero in the end would be your brain and dedication

I can verify that the site is legit...I've used it on occasion (as an uploader...found a solution to a problem I just couldn't solve, so I thought of it as an 'exchange' of ideas)
Be careful to use it as a tool however, and not simply as a solution manual, etc.

It's not worth it...majority of the stuff you can get for free, like previous tests which many professors post on ELM anyways. As for assignments and labs, I could only find questions, no answers. If you network enough though, you should be able to get them for free from upper-year students.
