Makkelijke site om veel samenvattingen en verslagen snel te vinden.
Weer een goede ervaring met Knoowy. Makkelijk en snel een nette samenvatting.
Soms koop ik meerdere samenvattingen over 1 boek. Dit helpt mij als ik onvoldoende tijd heb om het hele boek te lezen en zelf geen samenvatting kan maken.
Knoowy neemt toch wel wat stress voor de examenperiode weg. De samenvattingen geven een goede houvast bij het studeren waardoor je zekerder wordt van jezelf bij het studeren. Ideaal voor wie in tijdsnood zit of gewoon een extra overzicht wil hebben van het vak.
Werkt prima, gelijk downloaden en geen ingewikkelde procedures. Heel fijn!
Zeer goed in gebruik en betrouwbaar. Zelf zou ik er ook samenvattingen op plaatsen.
Super handig, echt een goeie site. Ik ga dit in de toekomst vaker gebruiken!
Super hulp bij het studeren en bespaart veel kostbare tijd.
