I know that there are several posts regarding questions such as these, but I was looking for some advise specifically regarding CCOM. I have been placed on the alternate list and was wondering a few things: I was planning on sending another letter of intent to admissions, but should I type out a letter or would email work (I thinking an actual letter) also I have contacted Mr. Laken, but he did not tell me if the class was already full etc, only that CCOM typically takes people off of the alternate list for class spots. Also I think that I have some pretty good rec letters, but I do not have one from a DO. Would this make a big difference or should I scramble around to find a DO to shadow for a few days? Any opinions on how to impress upon the adcom how committed I am to CCOM would be appreciated.
