Hey out there...
I will be applying mainly to DO programs, and I was looking at the CIB, but each school doesn't list how many letters it will accept, just whether they accept interfolio, etc... I have seven people willing to write letters, 3 MDs, 2 PhDs, 1 DO, 1 nurse who is the director of the local ER where I volunteered. I am wondering how many schools take more than three, and whether it's worth it to submit more than three? I know my state MD school will only accept three, you can submit more, but they will only read three, and you hurt yourself by not selecting them yourself.
Anyone have any thoughts? I will basically be applying 'broadly' so that means if it's not a public school, I'm probably applying to it (except in CA, and NYC).
Thanks for any help!
