I agree with Sybil. But a study guide isn't cheating. Are Sparknotes like Cliff Notes?

Cliff Notes = not cheating.

besides, most teachers can spot a cliffnotes reader a mile away. thanks to the insane student/teacher ratio, it's easy for kids to get away with relying on them.

Cliff's Notes got me through the Bronte Sisters. Don't get me wrong, I read the books, but it would never sink in due to the crap subject matter. They helped me know what the fuck was going on with Heathcliff and Catherine and Jane and Edgar and whogivesafuck....
