HSMom2One Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Does anyone here know if there is a big difference between the 1998 and the 2003 editions? I have the chance to get a '98 edition for free, but if there is a big difference then I don't want it. Thanks! Lucinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deniseibase Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 It's not a big difference. The main difference is, with the 1998 edition, they don't have the lesson numbers in parentheses before the problems in the mixed practice, so if you aren't sure how to solve a problem, you have to go searching back on your own. Personally, I found this annoying enough that it was worth spending the money to ditch the second edition for the third edition :-) But, other than that, there are no major differences that I know of.

Thank you! That's enough for me too. I'll go for the 3rd edition on that reason alone. Bless you, Lucinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
