I never wrote in the workbooks because I wanted to return them and get as much money as possible. Stupid me didn't realize they don't even buy back workbooks! So that was a good $30 down the drain for each class. I hate textbook return policies and the insanely fast speed at which they publish new editions. I somewhere heard the other day that the price of textbooks has increased at a greater rate than that of inflation- it's disgusting. |
