So on amazon.com about a week ago my biology book (which I need for ALL of my prerequisites for my minor) cost $130. Now today it cost $195. THIS SUCKS!
I found it there for a good price and bought it.SnowWhite1985 said:go on half.com..you can sell books there too
Yeah the 6th came out in 2002 and the 7th just came out. this 6th edition is used for all bio intro classes so almost every single student in the college of liberal arts at depauw will have this book at some time.IloveDMB said:Yeah mine is the old 5th edition. Didn't realize two more had come out since then. Should have known as I took the bio class way back in 2000.

We have 4 intro classes. Bio 120 and 140 are taking together each 7 week courses. Then Bio 160 and 180 are taking together each 7 week courses.IloveDMB said:Yeah we have two bio intro classes. I took them back to back and then decided I'd just keep the book because I thought I'd graduate with a bio degree. I ended up switching to public health but I still found the book to be a great reference.

So for the first 7 weeks of next semester I am in Intro to Ecology and then the last 7 weeks are Intro to Evolution.
I am a bio minor so the book will come in handy. I would have majored but you need calc, chem, and physics too...and I am not good at those. Plus I didn't want to double major and I am already a history major.
I am waiting to see how the bio curriculum is changing before I choose my path for my minor.IloveDMB said:Nope, I switched majors before I got to the plants course. We did cover it in my intro courses and I remember, it was incredibly boring. I can't imagine spending a whole semester on just plants.
If you get a chance, take a microbiology course. Much more fascinating.
