More on Textbooks...
Be sure you have the same edition of the textbook if you are buying it...even if the title of the book and the author(s) are the same, if you have a wrong edition, you may find yourself lost...the page numbers or even the content may be different!
On textbooks, just use http://bigwords.com/ because they will show you prices from ALL vendors online, be it for rent/sell/buy. So it's easy to compare prices. If possible, never buy textbooks. Trust me, you will never want to keep them at the end of the semester and moving out will be your worst nightmare.
Also try to get the International version of textbooks (because they are essentially exactly the same book). The only differences are the words "international edition" printed on a soft cover instead of a hard one.
