A lot of requirements for a military member to go overseas. The course starts on January 2. I will be on leave from Dec 28 - Jan 25. I know I can still take care of it while I am on leave. I read the syllabus and it says that the midterm/final exam is open book but it has to be a hard copy. I found a website where I can get the textbooks only as a pdf. Is it okay if I just print that off? If I buy a actual books now, it will be too late as I am located in Japan and I usually get my mails on my PO box in two weeks time frame even though I have the Prime.
The PDFs will be fine for general use during the course, but won't be useful during the midterm/final. Two weeks is probably fast enough to get it before the midterm, and you could start with the PDFs, but that has you buying the eBook AND a print copy.
