Unfortunately, I'm an English major. In addition to the textbooks, we have to buy all manner of supplemental novels, books of poetry, etc.
I save hundreds and hundreds of dollars by utilizing MOBIUS, MO's collegiate inter-library loan system. I just check out the majority of textbooks and supplemental books. |

So far:
Junior-Senior History Seminar: Exploring the West Elementary Logic Intro to Economics Classical Political Theory Campaigns, Communication, and the Media I also want to take Constitutional Law, but I don't think I'm signed up for it. If I get into that, I'd drop probably Campaigns, Communication, and the Media. I also want to take Classical Civilization, but I'm definitely not signed up for it. If I get into that, I'd probably drop Intro to Economics or the Seminar. |

You mean the subject-matter classes that will become the core of your career and work for the next 40 years?

[QUOTE=Reaper16;4924251]If I had remained an English major, I would have completed school on schedule. But I switched it up a bit late in the game and went with Economics.
I had one semester that pushed me to the brink. I student-taught a developmental English class, had a prof that had us read Dickinson to no end, and I realized I was only 1/4 done with the foreign language requirement of my degree. Then I quit. |

What do you plan on doing with that? Be a teacher? My friend has a history degree from Mizzou and he is still working at walmart, something is wrong with that picture...
I told him he needs to try to teach |

Last year of my MBA program, and I'm pretty much on cruise control at this point as I'm only taking two classes this mod - Leadership and Law & Finance of M&A.
I only have one book, but we also have classpaks that are basically $50 each for 20 photocopied pages, and you can't resell them. |
