Where can I buy Professior's Editions of college textbooks?

[Valhalla1]

I've got all A's this damn semester except this stupid Accounting class.. I hate accounting. I am pulling A's in Calculus and Physics classes this semester, yet I have a freaking D+ in Accounting of all things.

its all the damn forms and financial reports and debits and credits, it's just so frustrating for me. anyway there are these long as forms we do for homework that take like hours for each one, the textbook came bundled with another book, the "working papers", all the blank forms we have to put the numbers into from the problems in the book.

anyway, the prof. has the answers to the working papers. it would be nice to find a place on the net to buy that damn book with the answers in it so I can check my homework and save my ass in this class before I lose my scholarship. :disgust: :|


anyway, someone save my life here and tell me where to buy teachers editions of college texts?

Get a college degree or two, or three... And become a professor. At that point, the books will find YOU. Problem solved! Glad I could be of service. 🙂

I'm sure I'm not the first 'to think of it'

but it can't be that hard. 🙁

I have the cash, I want a book.. someone's gotta be willing to sell it. how do they know a teacher is a teacher when they sell a book

I HATED ACCOUNTING


Believe me, the day my teacher told me to forget everything I know about debits and credits because my definitions were worthless.... I didn't understand a thing afterwards. I ended up with a C in the class thanks to my Em-500 PDA (Doubles as a high tech looking calculator).

accounting is easy, just a bunch of busy work

Hrm... How can you be a straight-A student in every subject but Acctg? Surely this class you're having trouble in has to be a Cost Accounting (e.g., Upper-division) course, or Advanced Accounting, right? Financial Acctg. and Managerial Acctg. are the basics. I have to admit, I hated accounting, but the concepts are simple and practical.

Instead of looking for the teacher's manual, find a tutor in Acctg. or hire an Accountant to help you out! 🙂

no, this is not a high level accounting class.

its "Accounting Principles I", the very first accounting class you take. 😱

My problem EXACTLY! my prof said the exact same thing. This stuff is kicking my ass, I'm stressing big time about my mid term tomorrow. I've got a 3.9 GPA, I have a high A in my physics classes and math classes, but this busy work accounting junk is kicking my ass left and right!

Part of the problem is, the professor is a BABE.. She's like 25, and a dead ringer for Jenna Jameson (no kidding!) 'cept she has natural breasts. so instead of paying attention, I'm checking out the teacher. Also, I skipped 2 or 3 times during the first 2 weeks of class, when we first started journalizing and posting stuff, so I got way behind early on and I haven't caught up. and the prof FLIES thru problems in class, leaving me stunned and lost.

its a horrible feeling, having no idea what the teacher is talking about.. in all my life, in every class I've been in, I've never had the feeling.. its not a good one.

Accounting sucks!!!

Accountants are a bunch of loonies that created their own little crazy world and made it very confusing to normal people to understand their language.

Don't worry, I'm sure you will pass and the only thing you'll remember is that accountants hate the rest of the world because nobody is as anal as they are.

Just memorize everything and stop trying to understand it, because it doesn't make sense. Just think of it as a big tough sh!t that's stuck in the middle. Play their music and you will be free.

PS. Sorry if I was a little too graphic.
