No offense Marcquelle - it's sorta stupid how you make this into somewhat of a competition every year.

But I don't really have that many - Maths x4 (all school textbooks), Phys x1, Chem x1, English x1

Do you really feel the need to repeat this kind of thing over and over again?

Having many books is great and all but if you cannot put them into good use, why bother? I am not saying you are not putting them into good use but from your post, you seem to get some competition going around here.

My mate only has 2 maths textbooks given by the school and beat the crap out of me in maths. What does it really suggest?

I think its not about having ALOT of textbooks its about having the best ones (for your style) and using them most effectively.

Other than school ones I have:
3 for maths
2 for pdhpe
2 for bio
and 2 for chem
