MSAR Access Code, Emailed/Shipped?

[ReadyToRumble]

Can anyone who has bought the MSAR Online access verify how long it takes before you get the code and can use the website? Is it automatically sent after you pay or do you have to wait for someone to process your order? Also, is it shipped or emailed? The website doesn't give too much information and posts about the MSAR I've found on SDN focus on the paper version having an access code while this year everything seems electronic, including the guide book which previously included the code.

Oddly, I was going to buy it the other day and put it in the "cart" and it showed up for $15. Didn't have time to complete the process so I came back to it today and now it's $22, as listed.

Hey ReadytoRumble -

IIRC, I was able to access the MSAR immediately. I think you just sign up, pay online with a credit card, and then you should be able to log in with your AAMC account.

I bought it about a year ago, so somebody please correct me if I'm wrong. Pretty sure you should be able to access it as soon as you complete your purchase, though.

Thanks Bill R. and csx! Isn't the book an ebook now? Their site says the ebook is free with the purchase of MSAR Online.

The ebook they are referring to is the "Getting Started" ebook that you can download which you get for free with purchase of the MSAR online. It is separate from MSAR online, which has more of a website/database hybrid feel.
