Textbooks


The list of textbooks was emailed out to me and my peers a couple of days ago.
I decided to go the Amazon route because it is MUCH cheaper.
I spent around $360 on $630 worth of textbooks.
I recall hearing about people purchasing books this way back in my early days of college and brushed it off. I thought it would be too complicated to do.
Turns out....I was wrong.
I used Amazon for my prereqs this past summer and saved a bit then too.
I'm glad I've figured out the "hard"/cheaper way of doing things.
"Hard" =a little more work...not very hard at all.
Spending an hour on Amazon picking out my books was worth the $270 I saved.

I placed the order 2 days ago.
I received my first package, of 4 books, today.
I've used Amazon so much, I got a free month trial of a prime membership. On select items-I receive free 2-day shipping!


The textbooks I've received so far:


The Pathophysiology Book is the largest textbook I have had to date.
I'm more used to the size of the book on top (Patho is on the bottom).


It is going to be a crazy ride!
