    don't go buying all the books. Ask the year ahead of you on what books to get. Some you def need to get as the lecturer sticks very closely to it. Others never even touch it.

    And your library should have copies of the main ones too.

    I remember being every book mentioned in 1st yr. Quickly realised that was a waste of money.
