Just out of curiosity, when do our booklists come out? Everytime I go to the portal and click on booklist it says error. Thanks in advance :)
-
Check the handbook, look into your subjects and read the prescribed texts.
-
Thought so! Time to hit the handbook
-
1. Nobody uses that rubbish thing. Check your subjects' handbooks for prescribed texts.
2. You probably won't even need most of the texts. Wait 'til a week or two into classes before you buy any.
Definitely do number 2. Get your lecturer's opinion before buying. But for Intro Micro and Macro, it would be a good idea to buy the textbook. :)

hehe nobody uses that rubbish thing!!
Thanks for the advice, I think I'll just buy the main books, and get the lecturers opinion on any companion books
-
You'll never need a companion book, lol. The 'main books' are more companion books than anything else.
-
actually the handbooks not telling me texts for intro micro macro and MGMT10002, it says the lecturer will tell me :)
all i got from handbook is the french textbook i need
-
Are you doing French Intermediate A Raahem ?

This. The main textbooks are all you'll ever need. And believe me, if you buy any more, you'll not only end up wasting money but you'll be kicking yourself once you find out that you can borrow it from the library if you really, really need it. ;)
-
anyone have a good site to buy the prescribed books? (that being cheaper than directly from melbs)
-
bookdepository (occasionally fishpond is cheaper, but it's rare)
-
Fishpond ships faster since it's Australian based.

Ok, shall check these out, thanks:)
-
There's also heaps of texts to download here: http://www.studytemple.com/forum/ if anyone's interested.
-
Don't download pirated ebooks, it makes me cry!

Fishpond also have a cancel order feature, if you cancel before they ship it. Has saved me money before!

-
Well I dunno anymore ! Cause Im doing Bcomm (Accounting and Finance) and I can only do French A but not B cause I have no room for it... but I reallly wanna do French through uni.. I dunno what I'm gonna do =|
-
Is it advisable not to buy the textbooks until the classes start? ( i read from the subject review site that the ESD textboook was useless).
-
hmm... you can also buy books from amazon... :)

damn :( you should talk with the student centre and work something out!
also with your score you could do the advanced class too :O
-
Yeah I talked to them but they weren't much help.. =(
And I could.. But I think I'm too dumb to do Post VCE I reckon.. hahaaa
I don't wanna drop French ! Maybe I just won't do it in year one and do the summer intensive french class... hopefully something works out..
