Making a business out of selling notes

Hey everyone, I just had a question. I've been a pretty solid high school student and taken some pretty good notes throughout my career. All my textbook notes are typed and I was thinking about selling them. Any comments on the legality of this?

No legal issues AFAIK as long as your not selling your professors written notes.

However I know schools have rarely gone after students at the academic honestly/integrity level for selling notes/tests. But at the high school level, I doubt you will have a problem.

nothing that is semi-illegal will ever result in problems if you keep it a small scale production.. For example, do some research on the internet about websites that tried to be the middleman for selling college notes.. they all got sued and threats from the colleges.. However, at my college one of the book stores sells notes and does a ton of business just in one town, they have been around for years and there doesn't seem to be any legal issues

I would look into more research on other companies doing the same before going big with the idea such as NoteHall, who i believe is sweeping this idea
