Well it really depends what uni you're going to!
If you are going to USyd then some, if not most courses have not shown what texts you need to have. Textlists will probably be given to students during O-Week where then you could buy them at the Usyd coop bookshop or second hand shop.
I think Macquarie and UTS text lists are already shown at the coop bookshop website so check that if you are going there, but these are the full price books, but if you want second hand macquaire has a second hand 'bookshwop' and UTS has also one!!!

since u r goin to unsw, lemme address specifically .....
the best time to buy texts is after ur first lecture as they tell u what to buy. but for software (which me n u r doing), following r the texts for semester 1
<u>discrete maths : </u>Disctrete mathematics with application, second edition, by epp & proof in mathematics - an introduction, by franklin & daoud
<u>maths 1a : </u>claculus - one and several variables, eighth edition, by salas hille etgen. no book for algebra, they give u a 'course pack' for that
<u>computing 1a : </u>haskell - the craft of functional programming, second edition, by thompson
<u>business data mngt : </u> database systems, by rob coronel, 4th or 5th edition
