I am wondering if I should keep my undergrad sci textbooks, or sell them back?

have any of you used, or wish you had your books?

thanks
 
I have about 6 or so that I have kept. Anatomy, orofacial anatomy, pathogenic micro, micro made easy, bio, gen chem, and some others...
 
The only book I've actually used from undergrad was my anatomy text, and even then I think I pulled it out maybe twice for a quick reference. I did well in my first year classes too, but never missed any books I sold back. Unless there's a textbook you really liked, you're probably safe in selling them. If you do have a Netter's Atlas of Anatomy, keep that for sure. The rest of everything else you should be able to find either in your dental school texts or on the Internet.
 
unless you have an atlas.. the only useful thing you might have is a biochem book as you have used that in the past and you know where the stuff is in it when you need to look up refrecnes..
 
I kept quite a few undergrad textbooks....gen chem, orgo, biochem, and physiology. (and a few other textbooks that are irrevelant to dentistry)

It's really up to you- you can always borrow from library or google things to elaborate whatever you don't understand from class. But if you do keep your textbooks, I would keep biochem, anatomy, and physiology. The rest you can sell back/keep you warm during the winter.
