    Lol yeah... International editions and books from half.com are usually a bit cheaper than book stores. But, I usually add/drop at least 1 class per semester so returning them/trying to sell them is a hassle. And if I wait until my class schedule is permanent, then order them, I will usually already have assignments due before the book gets in.

    I still dont have books. While Im not spending $600 since I already have one of the books (same as last quarter), I still need to drop about $375 in books. Fuck. I hate school. Books alone might be what stops me from going back next quarter if my financial aid doesnt go through.

    You're definitely doing something wrong.

    Buy online, sell online. You wont spend more than 200.
