hare krshnA.. my humble pranAms to krshna bhakThAs.. ||shri krshna sharanam prapaDhyE ||
your material desire to become a university topper should be a good motivator to help you spread KCON. people listen to the toppers in any field. that's the nature of kali yuga - topper in beauty, knowledge, wealth, valour etc. and when you reach the goal and when you proclaim that KCON is the reason for it, people will believe with more credibility and then you also would've done your part to spread KCON like a flower spreads its fragrance to all who come across it. so do continue to hold the goal and work for it, but remember not to be carried by maya which may lead to egotism but the end should be to benefit KCON.
Now coming to giving notes to copy everytime for all subjects, I disagree that it is good to share it across. You may think that you are helping and your friends may feel materially happy to get it and score marks without any effort on their part except to rote learn and spit on exam paper. Rather than giving them notes, you can guide them in techniques of preparing notes by themselves according to their levels of understanding.
Coming to english proficiency give them copies of good books like Wren and Martin grammar, Webster dictionary, Rapidex english speaking course books which will help them in the long run later in their lives too. And believe me they will thank you then with gratitude right from their hearts, when they sit for campus interviews and start standing on their own legs in their career too.
I tell it from my experience as I was one of my university course toppers, I too had 'copying' friends. Now, I can see that my technique worked when my friends call me from abroad and tell me that how I've helped them in reaching their state all on their own rather than just spoonfeeding and satisfying the need of the hour.
May krshnA shower his graceful blessings and mercy on you !!
hare krsna
help can be given by a person who himself is free so the reply is one should seek the association of advanced devotees
modern education is compared to slaugter house so march forward left right absorb yourself in krsna consciousness
remain a bramhachari and when the time comes get married krsna consciousness is the solution to all problems
hare krsna chant and be happy

helping others and spreading knowledge, be it in any form, is always good..
keep it up...
others and copying and learning it? you should not feel bad about it, you should feel good..
its a normal thing in colleges, the one who makes the good notes, everyone else takes them and helping others is good.
