What is compulsory to buy are Continuous assessment booklets (Chemistry, Biology & Physics) which are sold at the respective department. You will get these through your Class Representatives.
In general, you would study using Lecture Materials given out by your Lecturers. It is where exam questions would come out from.
The only compulsory textbooks are Physics and Bio 151/152 texts because the continuous assessment sheet is attached to them.
And practical courses too..
Parasitology textbook also
For second semester tho
You will get practical manual from the department through your class rep.
