Alright, so. I'm pretty sure I've yet to meet someone who hasn't regretted buying a first year book. Personally, I wish I hadn't bought a single one of the books...I NEVER used them.
So for anyone who's been in the situation, what's it like with the 2nd year books? Are they used more often? Are they required? (For example, in first year, I got by on every midterm and exam with just the teacher's lecture notes...never read a book)
Let me know of your experiences with the 2nd year textbooks.
