No, they are like 140-180. Titles sells at 75% for used books, so they still end up being over 100$. Ridiculous! Have to find used books from students XD

great here we go having to spend hundreds for books and what I really hate is when the prof says yes please buy the book. We use it once for a small read and never use it again. There goes $100.

You can always continue reading during the summer if the material interests you. There's no price for knowledge ^-^

'Cause knowledge is power!

I always remember that from Family Guy, and I have the urge to stand and throw my hands up while saying it.

$568.90 for just the first term if I buy new...Yuck. It would have $121 more, but I decided to change the class to one that doesn't have a textbook. It's too bad I can't do the same for Genetics ($173.95!).
