<p>from what i'm getting from the previous posts, i don't think you'd be severely disadvantaged. if you're really a bookworm, then just get the SSMs.</p>
<p>another question:is CengageNOW (2-Semester Printed Access Card) different from the OWL Access Card? because i found a cheaper chem. book but it comes with CengageNOW instead of OWL.</p>
<p>I have coupons from Borders, that works well</p>
<p>Yeah the CenageNOW card appears to be different.</p>
<p>Anyway, I'm happy, 'cause I found a new int. edition of the chem textbook for $50!</p>
<p>I'm just wondering ,is now the best time to buy all the books? or are you guys just planning ahead to get the best deals?</p>
<p>i think if your schedule is solid and you're sure you won't change it, itd probably be good just to get the books now.</p>
<p>does the Owl Online Access Code on nedsbooks.com come with the ebook? It says Moore right next to it but it doesn't necessarily say ebook.</p>
<p>Hmm correct me if I'm wrong.</p>
<p>So it seems the cheapest way to buy these materials is:</p>
<p>Ebay:
iClicker</p>
<p>Ned's:
Lab Notebook
Lab Manual 2008</p>
<p>Half.com:
Moore Chemistry textbook</p>
<p><a href="http://owl.cengage.com/:%5B/url%5D">http://owl.cengage.com/:</a>
owl access code
-I checked the prices for these codes and they're only about 30-40 bucks.
They give you 3 choices - 1 semester, 2 semester, or 2 semester + eBook.
Chem 1A lasts only 1 semester, so I should buy the 1 semester code, right?</p>
<p>whoa nice jimmy</p>
<p>The owl.cengage.com is the right owl access code.
They didn't have all these options last year and it cost about $90 for the code.</p>
<p>thanks jimmy that helped a lot! :]</p>
<p>You guys choose UNIV OF CALIFORNIA as the school?</p>
<p>put in the Cal zip and that comes up at distance 0.0 from 94720</p>
<p>Just want to confirm with someone to but the 1 semester OWL right?</p>
<p>man buying these separately is really cheap in comparison to the packages</p>
<p>yes I'd like to know this too</p>
<p>and np guys lol just takes some reading and looking around</p>
<p>eh sorry to revive a dead thread</p>
<p>so i think for chem we need these:
i-clicker
OWL access code
textbook
lab notebook
lab manual</p>
<p>uhh..if we get the textbook we don't have to purchase the ebook right?</p>
<p>^^ you should add the chem reader to that list. It's listed on Ned's as the Odin Reader and it should be available in a few weeks.</p>
<p>You don't have to get the ebook, but it comes with the OWL whether you want it or not</p>
<p>okay thanks :)</p>
<p>if you buy the owl directly form the site I don't think you need to worry about the ebook, also for 1 semester it costs like $30</p>
<p>umm..are you sure we can just get the 1 semester one..
cuz why does it say 1 semester, 2 semesters, or 2 semesters+ebook..
doesn't 1 semester mean just the access code for 1 semester with no ebook? =</p>
<p>I remember someone posting saying that we only need one semester, can we have someone else confirm it as well?</p>
