Hi guys
So I am in the process of getting a couple more letters of recommendation and organizing the ones I've got in the past.
Now here's a dilemma for me.
I have three recommendations from two psych attendings and one from my IM clerkship. The IM clerkship director and one of the two psych attednings wrote me the letters when I was still trying to decide between neurology and psych.
Should I ask them to write me new letters to specify my interest in psych, or it doesn't matter?
I don't want the letters to ruin my match simply because the letters say, "he will be a great internalist" or "he will be a great neurologist or psychiatrist"
You know what I'm saying? How is it frowned upon if a letter comments how great the student will be in another field?
