Ashland University accelerated Program Textbooks

I am going to Ashland University in Ohio for the accelerated program. I have added up all the cost for the books for the first semester & it $400 even with used books! Do I really need every book for the first quarter? I do not see how it is possible to read much of 12 text books in a 3 month period! Does anyone out there who has been to Ashland University in the accelerated program want to sell me their books or can suggest what books not to buy/weed out?
Are those the text books with the teenie font and the book measures 1' by 2' with over 2, 000 pages? Yea; I would go home and look and actually laugh at how in the world am I suppose to read 65 pages a night (each text). Ahh, welcome to nursing school.Learned how to speed read. Yes I would attain all the books required for the courses.
