I'm using mine in Bio 2F03 for a 3% participation mark. People use them at surprising times. Wouldn't hurt to hang onto it.

Yes, they are used in upper years. I'm a second year student and I need mine for 3/5 of my courses this semester. I would recommend keeping yours.

most of my 2nd year classes use them as well.
I think you should wait to see what your profs say in the first classes?

Also, I think it's worth mentioning that 2 of those courses didn't use iClickers last year. It sounds like more and more courses are using them. So, even if you know what courses you want to take in future years and they don't currently use iClickers, they may start to use them by the time you come to take those courses.

I think it would be better to hold on to it. Some upper year courses do use it. And since it's always in demand you would have no problem selling it after your last year.

you can sell the iclickers any time so it would be wise just to hold on to it until your done uni.

For my second year anatomy we use them for quizzes worth 30%, everyone threw them out after first year cause they assumed, might as well keep it instead of selling it for a few bucks.
