Books and Calculator

So I bought all my books on kijiji.ca. Well, we don’t need Statistics yet, because Math goes first, so I bought everything except that one.

Many people put their advertisements on kijiji after the classes start, so just make sure to check it all the time. Also, it is a good idea to ask the teacher if you can buy previous version of the book (which will be cheaper). They usually know the differences between editions and will tell you how much you need the latest one. Also, I have heard the Excellence in Business Communication - book can be found online in pdf format. 

I asked our math teacher if I could not buy the calculator and just use the functions from some calculator software. She said we won’t have laptops on our exams so we better buy calculator. It is a good idea to check the calculator online. Amazon suddenly discounted it from 50$ to 34$, but it sold out quickly. You can also get it from ebay. But usually sellers are from USA and it will take lot of time for delivery. You might be lucky to find it on kijiji as well.

Lyryx is a web portal where Math and Accounting teachers put the assignments and you have some period of time to solve it (for example one week). I really love it because you can improve yourself. I mean, if you have done anything in the wrong way, it explains the correct way and lets you  solve the similar problem over and over again until you get all marks. It really helps you to understand some stuff.

This is for example a math lab 

If you buy used books from someone else, you have to buy lyryx separately. Its login.lyryx.com and for Accounting and Math I paid 68$. 

We don’t use another web portal Connect and Mybuscommlab. We only use Lyryx. 

Math book is a book published by Red River College, but actually it is the same book as Business Mathematics in Canada (we use 7th edition today). So you can buy that book and it will be all the same, just different pages.
