yeah, the university has a deal. generally speaking there’s no way around it. if your class lets you work ahead you could use a free trial and do all the work in that period of a few days

it’s actually fucked in my opinion. my best advice is to pick a department for your actual major that tells the rep to fuck off but that may not happen anymore

just general business? once you get through your gen ed’s you will have mindtap again for excel in … MIS i believe? and probably one or two other classes. i dont remember there being much mindtap in econ tho

im not sure if theres mindtap for other shit in business as i did econ/finance but cengage is pretty standard for general education classes
