Using Prior Edition Textbooks?

[missjennmb]

Anyone ever done this for a class? I am only missing my A&P book and have all of my nursing books but I am wondering if I could get away w/ the previous edition of my A&P book instead of the current one. Its a book w/ 12 editions so it cant be *that* different right? It would mean a huge drop in the cost and right now its listing at over $300 ($175 via half.com)

In micro I used one edition behind and there one page different in the whole book. The one the class bought was 185 in the bookstore, I got mine online for 5 bucks.

Also with the incredibly made easy books, I bought one edition behind if the year was not that old.
