It's not illegal to sell on material second hand surely?

Hi I'm not sure if it's illegal or not to sell on second hand copies. However, the cost of these courses is exploitative and elitist. Some of them are almost the price of a year at med school. Rant over... I'll never get in with an attitude like that will I?!
If it's not illegal does anyone have a copy of the Medprep 2007 home study that they would like to pass on?!
Thanks

I believe it isn't illegal to sell on original material but to make photocopies and sell is to breach copy right which is illegal.

GAMSAT materials for sale (comprehensive bundle)
Hi there,
I sat the GAMSAT in 2006 and have decided not to retake it. Please find a list of the materials for sale, I'm selling them as a bundle and not in seperate parts - I'm sorry.
They are all originals with no photocopies. Offers around £100 please! Please contact me at dbillyg@hotmail.com if you have any questions. Postage would be around £20 I would guess as the lot weighs around 10kg. I would not look to profit from any postage charge and would refund any surplus at the point I took it round to the Post Office to post. Ideally we could meet in person for the sale. I live in Merseyside.
Kind regards,
David
From GradMed course: GRADMED - UK’s leading provider of independent preparatory courses for tests GAMSAT BMAT MSAT Sixth Form Medical School Application Programme
they have their teachers sit the exam each year
main chap did one year of a medical degree - but now runs a lucrative education business - lots of language/ crammer schools in London and overseas. The course ran over 11 weekends in the Autumn (2004 I did it)
Lever arch file - Chemistry notes from 6 chemistry days (by chap above) - cost me 760 pounds
Lever arch file - Biology notes from 6 biology days (by an A-Level Biology teacher) - cost me 760 pounds
(English course by a chap from creative writing collage in Oxford lasted 4 days) - cost me 490 pounds
Lever arch file - English - comprehension
Lever arch file - English - essays
I did not do the GRADMED physics course with them as I have a PhD in the subject
--I bought some material / notes off an ex GAMSAT sitter I met over the web who had done the abbriviated gradmed course.
--I made notes based on the subjects that came up in the practice papers
--I have a small list of the Physics syllabus as deduced by GRAMED
Gradmed - simulated gamsat paper
-- this is harder than the real thing (especially the comprehension paper!!)
-- comes with full explanation of answers
Gradmed - mock exam (this is a 2003) production
-- I bought this off the same ex GAMSAT bloke so did not pay and sit the 2004 gradmed
-- but when I spoke to other folk it was the same paper
-- good thing to leave to the end of your revision
Ozimed - ten practice papers
Ordering
currently going for £117 for all ten
I did most of the essays from these with a friend, we went away and did the same two essays in the correct time, then met in a pub once a week to discuss our results. It was very good practice.
I got through about 6 of the science papers as I started too late
these are simpler than the present exam, but very good practice at timing and just getting used to sitting down for a whole day and doing.
ACER - GAMSAT - three practice papers
http://www.acer.edu.au/tests/univers...rder_form.html
these are quarter to half length the real thing, and simpler than the present exam
1994 (sample questions), 1996 (practice questions), 2002 (practice test)
on the Australian site for 22+22+38.50 = 82.5 Australian Dollars = 34 UK pounds
Des O' Niel Des O'Neill's Gamsat Preparation Courses
I did their prognostic preparatory test off their website ... think they mark that for free
and I paid for the first four essays I wrote to be marked cost me 76 pounds and have their "perfect" answers for those (I would not give you my essays - too personal)
Thanks

It would be nice if they put just even a couple of sample questions on their website, not even whole papers.
It would give prospective candidates a quick means of making a yay or nay decision as to whether they think that route is applicable.
I'd bet that it would in fact lead more prospective students to decide in favour of going the GAMSAT route.
Someone thinking of training to be an accountant, can go into a bookshop have a flick through and ACCA, CIMA text see the level of the test material and think yep, "I can do that", "that looks challenging but I'd manage if I keep my head stuck in" or "no way, not in a million years" .
