1000 for one semester!? Damn. By shopping around and finding some good deals, I got a semester's worth of books for under 600, and I'm sure other people did even better.

Re: Cost of Books
It varies. If all of the books are new editions (the edition came out during the current year), then they will likely be between $150-$180. Most classes also have supplements that cost between $20-100. If you have 5 courses (not including LRW) and you make it under $1,000, you did well (pass). If you make it under $800, you did very well (high pass).

I spent around $1000, including my LW books. And I shopped around.

Just under $800, but it's only for one quarter, so I'm probably going to clear $2000 by the time June rolls around.
And that's without buying E&Es and hornbooks, just the mandatory stuff.
