chem 14 series

<p>What textbooks are you guys using in chem 14b or 14c. I want to know if its the same textbook as the full chem 14a textbook. And in which course of the series do you actually have to use the model? Thanks.</p>

<p>You can just go to the registrar website (<a href="http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/schedule%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.registrar.ucla.edu/schedule&lt;/a&gt;) and look them up whenever you want since they might vary depending on the professors. I doubt 14c uses the same textbook as 14a/b since a/b are gen chem while c/d are o-chem.</p>

<p>Looks like for 14b they use atkins chemical principals while in 14c they use Vollhardt Organic Chem Structure & Function</p>

<p>And models aren't needed until you start o-chem so 14c</p>

<p>Alright, cool. Thanks for the infor on the registrar site.</p>

<p>i was wondering...how much do used chem 14a books usually go for..because i know someone that wants to sell me their used copy and i dont wanna get ripped off as most freshman do</p>

<p>you can compare it to the listed used price in the student store as a guide (of course his should be less than even that used price)</p>

<p>I don't think the ones from the student store are available used yet. Its a new 4th UCLA custom edition. The only old ones I've seen were 3rd editions. But maybe I am wrong. The student store doesn't have any old ones for this 4th custom edition.</p>

<p>is anybody desperately willing to give up a chem 14a book for winter quarter? i am looking for aikins chem princ: 4th w/ model kit..</p>

<p>model kit?! explain that.</p>

<p>nvm about the models. i just read the above post.</p>

<p>I believe models do help for stereochem in 14B.</p>

<p>will there be a huge difference between the material in the 3rd and 4th edition?</p>

<p>dawritingmachine: I'm selling my 14A book WITHOUT the model kit for less than the $63 the bookstore is charging (the price itself is negotiable but I can tell you right now it will be more than $32 and less than $52). PM me if you're interested.</p>

<p>Wangdirty30: someone in my 14A discussion had the 3rd edition and they found that some of the homework problems were different. I think the text was pretty much the same.</p>
