<p>In theory yes, but you can get some from the library if you're good about that kind of thing.</p>
<p>You can always get books online. The execption is lab manuals sold by the school. These you can find in bookstores on campus.</p>
<p>Wow..we have to read 11 books in one semester huh? Don't get me wrong I like reading lol, I just am not a fast reader so this kind of worries me.</p>
<p>Some of the reading assignments just involve small sections of books and not the entire work.</p>
<p>but is it true that we won't get through all of them? if that's the case, then I don't want to buy all 11 at once.</p>
<p>That is certainly a relief.</p>
<p>You should buy all of them. Unless of course you borrow them or can get them at the library b/c at some point you will be reading each one.</p>
<p>for the organic chemistry 210 textbook called chemistry: structure and reactivity, is it true that it is a custom textbook and we can only purchase it at UofMI bookstores?</p>
<p>no. unless of course they have changed it. mine was the 5th edition i think, a green book, and i bought it online through half.com . I don't know about the study guide though. you might only get that in um bookstores.</p>
<p>should we buy the textbooks now or wait until school starts?</p>
<p>If you can get em now, you'd be saving yourself a big headache when everyone bombards Ulreich's the day before classes start.</p>
<p>is it worth it selling back textbooks to the bookstores or do they pay you a really low price for them?</p>
<p>They pay an incredibly low price for them, but it depends on the timing and how much they need the book, so on.</p>
<p>Sell your textbooks online (Facebook or Half.com). You'll get a much better price for them, which far outweighs the inconvenience. Bookstores don't make money by paying you for your books.</p>
<p>If you're worried about the amount of reading you'll have to do, then buy the books early and get a head-start reading them (seriously). If your professor has already posted the syllabus then you can find out exactly what chapters you'll need to read. In fact, I'd recommend getting a head start on all your reading just so you'll have a basic understanding of the topics before classes start. You'll learn a lot more in class as well.</p>
<p>Anyone know how good the ULoop site is?</p>
