Selling 1st Year Melbourne BDSc Textbooks

[theillestill]

I just thought I'd list a few books that you'll probably want to get from the bookstore for 1st year.

Anatomy of Orofacial Structures - This book is great for Dental Practice 1 for first semester, after which it won't be in depth enough. Nice illustrations.

General Anatomy - I used this book for the first semester course Intro the Biomedical Sciences. Don't know if the course is still run, but it's pretty much a required text to pass.

I might have a few others, but if you're interested give me a PM.

hey theillestill, I'm a bit interested as I'll be starting this year.
I thought we could borrow textbooks from the library, but do we have to buy those?

 

[theillestill]

Thing is the library only keeps maybe 2-3 copies, and there's about 83 people in your program. It's hard to get a hold onto these, and especially cause they're due back the next day.

 

[gihone2000]

Oh Ok. So unlike in High School, where you used to borrow textbooks for a year, at University's libraries, you can only borrow those for 1-4 weeks?

Did you buy all the new textbooks that were required in the first year?

 

[theillestill]

The most frequent texts are only available for an overnight loan.
