53. I
would
not
have
bought
the
text
book
for
this
course
because
it's
an
elective.
I
would
have
possibly
walked
away
with
a
C,
now
I
might
actually
get
an
A-‐
It
is
easily
accessible
and
convenient.
Material
is
easy
to

and

I
personally
really
like
the
convenience
of
having
the
complete
set
of
chapters
on
my
computer
and
even
accessible
from
my
phone
if
I
need
it.
I
like
that
I
don't
have
to
lug
around

book
It's
free
and
it's
a
great
money
saver
