Note Taking Club (NTCs)
NTCs are student-made notes that provide supplemental material for your courses. Each year, PULS hires student writers to take detailed lecture notes and edit them so they align with the current course content. NTCs are available through a secure platform and are not downloadable. Interested in getting involved? You can apply to be an NTC editor—check the PULS Instagram at the start of the semester to see if we’re hiring.
You can buy NTCs for the full course, a specific section, or individual lectures.
We offer NTCs for:
- PHGY 209
- PHGY 210
- PHGY 311
- PHGY 312
- PHGY 313
- PHGY 314
- PATH 300

NTCs are a lifesaver during exam season, but not always easy on the wallet. That’s why PULS is offering NTC Bursaries to make sure every student can access these amazing notes, no matter their situation. If cost has been a barrier, this is your chance!

NTC Common Questions
For questions or concerns with your NTCs, please email pulsmcgill@gmail.com or DM @pulsmcgill on instagram.
Why have I not received my NTCs yet?
- NTCs are shared manually by our U Reps.
- Please allow the Reps at least 24 hours to share the notes with you
- NTCs are shared via google drive.
Why can I not see all the NTCs uploaded in the folder shared with me?
- NTC editors are in the classes with you and take notes during the lectures.
- They update NTCs with the most relevant information.
- Allow them two days to ensure the notes are well done.
- All lectures relevant to midterm and exams will be uploaded before the test.
Notes at the beginning of the semester are slow. Why?
- Editors are hired at the beginning of the semester.
- They need some extra time to catch up on the lectures that passed before they were hired. But, they will catch up!
What do I do with the “ticket” it sends me after I purchase my NTCs
- When you purchase the NTCs, they give you a QR code ticket. YOU DO NOT NEED THIS TICKET.
- It is just the way the shop website runs. We are sorry for any confusion this causes.
- The NTCs are shared digitally.
- You do not need to physically come and pick up the NTCs
