Bringing books to class... necessary?

Hey I don’t think the original question was answered very well haha…

I took Chem 1A in Fall '09. At least when I took it there was a lab manual and a discussion manual that you had to bring to the lab. You didn’t actually have to do the discussion questions because they weren’t graded, and there was some complicated way of grading the labs anyway, which I’m not sure is still implemented or even if Spring semester is graded in the same way. In any case, both the manuals are extremely light and shouldn’t be a problem.

I also took ESPM 50AC. No you don’t have to bring the book. It is also very light though. I didn’t even purchase it because I took the class for P/NP. Even so, most of my peers in the class didn’t even bother to read the articles in the reader. Of course, I took it this last Fall, so I’m not sure it will be the same for you.

Good luck!
