<p>I have a professor who held an optional final exam review session where he essentially rewarded all of us who attended with all sorts of hints on specific types of questions which will be on the final. I thought it was pretty unfair, especially because the review session was not during our normal class-time and it's totally reasonable that some people would have schedules that conflict (about 1/4th of the class showed up).</p>
<p>Should I report this to someone?</p>
<p>There is nothing wrong with that. Professors give tips and extra advice to people that come to office hours all the time. All students had the option to attend.</p>
<p>what do you think a review session means?</p>
<p>I don’t see anything wrong with that.
Review session is for your own benefits. If you don’t come, well … the professor already allocated his own time to help students out for that review session. If you come, then you get the benefits.</p>
<p>Oh well, I guess. I hope in the future I never have a class that happens to be at the same time of another teacher’s short-notice review session.</p>
<p>It felt wrong. I’ve been to plenty of review sessions, and this is the only one that made me feel this way.</p>
<p>Well, how about you ask ppl who went to review session which materials he went over? That should help you a bit.</p>
<p>It sounds as though the OP attended the session.</p>
<p>My guess is that not all of the 3/4 that missed the review were in class; some just blew it off.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I was there.</p>
<p>Someone who couldn’t make it asked for notes from the review on the class discussion boards, and someone else posted their notes for everyone, so I guess the issue is resolved.</p>
