Ok, kind of a silly question but here goes...

I borrowed index cards from a friend to study for a major exam...

Want to know if there is a way I can copy them without having to write them by hand (150+).

Thought about going to Kinkos or some other copy place but I'm worried it will ruin the cards and since its my friend's only copy....

What other options do I have?


Thanks!

How about scanning them?

You couls scan them or take digital photos... or, there is this one invention called... "The Pen".
You use "The Pen" to make marks on another, blank set of cards. Then you have a set of notes and the benifit of writing them down yourself so that you know what is on them.

Why don't you just copy them onto an 8x11.5 piece of paper or something. Is there any reason that they have to be index-card sized?

As a side node, assuming that you can't bring these to the test with you, actually copying them by hand may not be a terrible way to study by itself.

Find a copier with a flat scanner portion so you do not have to feed the cards into it and print them on card stock. Then cut them out. Should be able to get several on a page. Try a copy center like Kinkos.

I agree with the folks pointing out that copying the cards by hand is good studying. Just copy them by hand. Any shortcuts you go for will only hurt your retention of the information.
