Buying books

<p>which ones did you guys buy? the green early transcendentals? :confused:</p>

<p>i'm still waiting for mine to come in. supposedly the seller shipped it out this past monday using USPS media mail...</p>

<p>What kind of 31-series Calculus book is 1500 pages? :rolleyes:</p>

<p>i think the 1500 page red Calc includes both single variable and multi so i assume it covers 31 and 32 series. me and socalgirl got the 900 page text, which is also red, but is ONLY single variable. :( </p>

<p>SoCalGal87: ya hopefully we can sell it back or smokething and buy the 1500 page one.</p>

<p>i could get the ISBN for both version but its late and i need to go to bed.</p>

<p>If I'm only planning to take the single variable series (32 series is multi-variable right?), should I just stick with the book I have now? Are the problems still the same? I'm only taking this math class because I'm considering double-majoring in Economics and Political Science. For the economics pre-requisites, we only need to take Math 31A and Math 31B.</p>

<p>Do you guys think I could buy an international version of a textbook and get away with it? I live in Singapore, and they're so much cheaper. Will the insides be exactly the same?</p>

<p>wow you live in singapore and will be coming to UCLA?.. wow that's quite a journey. hey how much are the bose quiet comfort 2 noise cancelling headphones there? haha can you check cuz i just bought mine for 323.67 and am wondering if it's a dramatic difference with over there. thanks =).</p>

<p>heheh, i have the same pair, unfortunately they were a gift so i'm not quite sure about the price. i doubt its significantly cheaper...</p>

<p>isn't the calculus book 1300 pages (the one w/ both single and multivar)</p>

<p>Doesn't 31A and 31B only require the single variable calculus book? Are any chapters from the multivariable section covered in the class?</p>

<p>yes the 1300 one has both single and multivariable. like i said, i bought mine b4 i knew the ISBN trick. its ok, i will sell it and buy the 1300 later on. the price gap between the two are negligible anyways.</p>

<p>31s are single while 32 are multi i believe.</p>
