I've recently started considering applying here, but does anybody know how fluent you have to be in Spanish? Are classes taught in Spanish? I speak it, but am not totally fluent...

I believe the lecture is either in spanish or english, depending on the professor. exams, handouts, etc are in english though. My anatomy professor is also an anatomy professor at this med school and his lectures are always in english because he prefers it. I'm sure there are professors that prefer to speak in spanish to the class though.

Do they really want 3 separate LOR's using their form?? They can't just use the one's submitted to AMCAS?? I've tried calling admissions but I don't get any answer...
