Came in two weeks before I was expecting it and came brand new. I thought I ordered a used one, but it came with the access code as well. Saved me a bundle!! Thank you so much! I will definitely be using you again next semester.

It isn't quite needed in the class but it is a good guide to have for a reference - Rachel dawn- author of Taking Back the Pen
