Hi guys,

I know that we are to purchase the 1st semester textbook from the University. I was wondering if you can provide me the list of 1st, 2nd and the third semester's text books. I might be able to purchase some of them here cheaper...


thanks,
Rico

Hey Rico,

I don't know if it's really worth the effort to buy the books in Canada and then ship them down. These books are heavy as a whole and will eat a nice chunk out of your total weight limit allowed by the airlines.

Someone may want to correct me on this but I don't think you can opt out of purchasing books for the first term. So you may be stuck with buying books twice. For first term I would go with what the school gives and charges you, then for second, third and fourth term you can see if an upper termer will sell you some books he/she may not want to ship home.

Maybe pick up a Netter's Flashcard set or Chungs for anatomy. Also, the school will send you a book list for first term in the acceptance package.

Hope this helps.

worry about the 2,3,4th books when you finish 1st term. if you search through this forum you will get a good idea of what you need for the upper terms.

long story short - dont buy all the books because you dont need them all.

2 books that i DONT recommend you buy in any capacity are the Neuro textbook by Kandel and the Merck.

but search through these forums and you will see.
