Software engineering. Already have a Comp Sci degree and am working just i dunno, bored.

Can you elaborate a little? I'm interested because I might major in CS. Are you just looking to have better opportunities? Or are you not satisfied with what's out there? How long has it been since you've graduated?

Did really well last quarter, and starting monday for winter quarter. Getting into all my upper division classes so im excited but sad my break will be over.

I think I'm actually excited that classes start Monday.

However, I'm even more excited that I saves myself a shit ton of money by getting e-books.

I tried e-books and it didn't work out for me, I like the paper books. Sucks for me, my chem book was expensive

My problem is that I can't sit and read a typical textbook. However, you make it so I can read it on my iPad - Boom! I actually do my reading assignments. To each their own though.

I tried using them on the iPad, but would get distracted and end up on Facebook lol

 

[nakenyon]

Ah. True. I am often distracted by Facebook.

How do you sell an e-text book after you are done with the class?

You can't.

Mostly you don't. That is one downside. I've continually managed to somehow be taking classes that it is the last semester that they are using the particular book I purchased, then my books have near zero resale value. It's also the convenience of carrying around a one iPad versus 20 pounds in books.

when i couldn't sell my book, I would donated my text books to a library

Editions may change, but the core content of the material never really does

Text books are the biggest scam

Thanks Obama!
