Well, the thing is, I couldn't find a list for the books that I needed it, and on the site that my school game it, it would NOT list the ISBN number for the books, nor a really full title. I got them today, since it wasn't too bad, I was going to hold off and look around.  But I'm waiting for an advisor to get back to me about locating which books I need and stuff. malignant melanoma Posted at 11:22 am on Aug. 18, 2008 did you try half.com?

I always try to get used, but it doesn't work so well Haha, I know!  I was SO happy.  I checked my first course, and it was 275 dollars right there, no used or anything.  And so I thought I was going to be in trouble... but the other two classes were so cheap! :) Lol, next year won't be so lucky Just Waiting Here Posted at 11:19 am on Aug. 18, 2008 Quote: from Malignant Melanoma at 11:12 am on Aug. 18, 2008 Whoa, hopefully you didn't get all new. No, not all...  The most expensive one, which was 275 dollars or so I was forced to buy new.  But I got SO lucky, because the rest of my courses were like... only 30 dollars each. That's going to change next semester :'( SimplisticComplexity Posted at 11:14 am on Aug. 18, 2008 Quote: from MXfreak at 2:12 pm on Aug. 18, 2008 my school provides books (highschool) Just wait until you're in college.
