any chance that you'll be offering a discount on paperless books anytime soon? I really enjoyed the chance to peruse through your books when they were available during test prep week.

Hi lilnoelle,

For the Paperless products, the prices break out so low that we felt it might be more beneficial to bundle related products together for an overall larger discount. Our goal with Paperless is to create packages that fit into students' lifestyle, budget and schedule. Maybe you can help?

Do you feel, for instance, that a pathology bundle with a textbook, review book and question bundle would be helpful? Do you think a package like that should include a subscription to USMLE Consult for test prep as well? We're still finalizing these decisions, so your insights would be helpful.

Thanks!

P.S. Here's how pricing currently breaks down for Paperless products:
• 3 months from just $5 to $11 per month
• 6 months from just $4 to $9 per month
• 12 months from $2.50 to $6 per month BEST DEAL!
• Question bundles only $9.99 for 12 months

I don't know whats best with the various bundle options.

To me, it just doesn't make sense to pay $33 for 3 months or $52 for 6 months for use of a book that I can buy for roughly the same amount. (Or a bit more.... but then they'd be my books and thats worth something).

I guess if I needed to use a book for a month or three I'd just get it from my library.

I'd like it to be worth it, cuz there are probably books that I might find useful for a short period of time but not worth buying.... but it just doesn't seem like the current deal you've got is really worthwhile (at least to me).

Hi!

Unfortunately, the new edition of Swanson's is not due out until December, and there's no full text online plan this time. I've forwarded your query to the editor. Not sure how much I can help you within 4 weeks... Is there anything else you plan to use to prepare?
