Thanks everyone. ImKosher, you're right, the bookstore is nothing but a bunch of crooks! Think I may just buy the previous editions, seems fairly safe as long as it wasn't published too long ago..

I am starting nursing school in the spring and I'm attempting to minimize costs anywhere I can. I've already figured out from previous semesters of buying ridculously expensive micro and chemistry books that renting is definately the way to go, but only if I'm not going to need the book again. I'm posting my booklist below, if anyone with previous experience could look at this and help me figure out which ones I should rent instead of buying, I would GREATLY appreciate it. Thanks!
