Does your school have online books that are so expensive that you want to cry? Yet, the sad reality is you either pay or fail. College is a mess..

Like.... so this damn Business Finance book I have is like $150.. and I don't know if I want to pay for it. Or what to do. Its a required class and I have to take it and pass. I don't want to retake in the summer because the professor I have is called the best professor in his department and all his test are true or false and usually people pass as long as u do the work. You even get curves so "yay"... Like e-mial his .... (holds anger) lets call him Mr.Clean... I e-mailled his Mr.Clean Ass... and he was like

"Good Evening,

 

Hello, I wanted to ask you about the Finance book. The reason I was registered twice was because I used the trial run because I wasn’t able to afford the price of the book. I wanted to ask you if I could actually buy the book off amazon or any other books store? Also, does it still work or do I have to buy a certain book and if I can’t I can find away to pay for the book?  I rather go the cheapest route if possible. Thanks for answering."

"The only thing that is required is that you buy the online content Connect which has an ebook in it.  That's the least expensive route"

Dude, have you tried your local library? They tend to carry the books. I never bought a book after freshman year when I learned that trick.

Thanks God I'm still not in a level of studies where I'm supposed to buy expensive books

Oh SHIT you know I didn't even think of that

I am about to hit the LB up right b4 class 

[Kween Hyojung]

I have realized that buying textbooks is a waste of money, its easier for me to just attend the lectures and try and find pdfs online.

See I was going to do that and I was going to go to the Library but I realized my damn prof is using that Learn Smart SHIT... UGGHH 

[LeeTaeyong]

Yeah I totally feel you. 2 of my courses required an access code for online assignments so I couldnt rent or anything. But i spent only $300ish total for my books this semester.

[evil4life]

just pirate that shiz if possible, you'd be surprised

the secret is to find PDF files online.. even tho your risking your computer of viruses.. but usually you can find it.

this pretty much! Make sure you do your best scavenging for the book before buying it.

EDIT ah... learnsmart though;;

[Only 1 U Need Connoisseur]

Fuck those books you cant return right? SHIT 

Yep.. It can't be returned or soldback to the school store = = . I will try to sell it to someone else when i'm done with it. 

[ethereal]

my school added the costs of books to my tuition this semester and my mom paid it without even realizing. 

[MidnightEXO]

just pirate that shiz if possible, you'd be surprised

I wonder how I can do that... hmmm I really need to because If I fail the first test I might drop and I dont want to buy the book and fail thats like 150 down the damn drain

OH HELL NAH? For real?

I hate that shit. It's so disrespectful. Like people don't have money to just buy 150 bucks on one book 

[Kween Hyojung]

See I was going to do that and I was going to go to the Library but I realized my damn prof is using that Learn Smart SHIT... UGGHH 

 

What is Learn Smart? Online grades or something?

[ethereal]

OH HELL NAH? For real? 

yep and all of the material is only accessible online anyway so you wouldn't be able to sell it back either way...

[Chimney]

have you tried to search for the bookname.pdf??

people are generous 

[Pleasure]

ugh I hate the cost of textbooks, i try to rent all my books... and it sucks when you have to get a new book bc of the access codes or w/e i had to do that this semester and I don't think we're even using the access codes sooo wtff

[evil4life]

google the name + rar or pdf, pirate bay or any other torrent site might have the book

 

its not guaranteed but there have been a few occasions where ive saved my money by just downloading the book straight to my tablet. 

[Ddeona Oneul Bame]

My books are $100-$200 dollars, but I can rent most of mine, so they're usually a bit cheaper like in the $100s~

 

This quarter, thankfully only needed one book, tho~ 

[To The Beautiful You]

If you aren't able to find it at the library, maybe try and see if Amazon sells a code for it or something if you haven't already.

 

Textbooks are so ridiculously expensive. Mine alone this semester costed a total of

$300

and the majority of them were used..

 

I have financial aid that pays it but it's laughable the amount of money these school expect you to drop all this money for books, tuition, etc.

 

We aren't made of money, ffs >.>

What is Learn Smart? Online grades or something?

The homework is online. Which is absolute utter bullshit ... and we have pre quizzes on it :/ before the test
