Just letting everyone know how awesome textbook exchange is. I've found 3 of my textbooks for around $30-$40 cheaper than RRP.

btw at UNSW, are the course notes for ACCT1501 and ECON1101 good? (If they have any of them)

There are no course notes for those subjects. At least, when I did them.

Did FINS1613 have course notes? Also, do you know if the course notes for MATH1151 have come out yet?

No.

And go to the UNSW Bookshop to see if the MATH1151 notes are out.
