i bought the required books from a combination of different sites including www.ebay.com, www.amazon.com and www.half.com. i actually bought all of them from these sites. i spent $.99 on one book, $2 on another ...you get my drift. i would check for each book on all these sites, and would just go for the best bargain, while considering things such as quality, price and edition. hope that helps. the books really don't have to cost an arm and a leg.

Try collegeswapshop.com they give you compared prices from different sites and you can have them email you when a book becomes available at the price you want. Also try Barnesandnoble.com and go to used textbook section.

If I understand your second question correctly, you are asking when to finish doing all of the program minus the CPNE, which you will wait 6 to 9 months for a test date. Do not procrastinate. Finish up with all of your required courses and the EC exams as soon as possible. Then you can spend your time preparing for the exam and possibly taking courses toward your BSN. If you take too long with the program you are inviting yourself to get caught up in any curriculum changes that might occur. You can not count on being grandfathered for curriculum changes. Once you are waiting for the CPNE, they literally can not pull any new changes on you. Good luck in your studies. Hope you are successful.
