- Is Genetics considered a science recc letter
-How bad is it to have 2 recc letters from the same class (Biochemistry)-one speaking to you as a student, one speaking to you as a TA
-How many recc letters should one have
-Should I send MD letter to MD schools? Would it look bad to send DO letters to MD schools?
-Can I send 2 DO letters to Do schools
-How do you save letters if you decide to take a gap year
Yes

Get one letter with both on (TA+student)

Generally, 2 science 1 non-science

Physician (MD/DO) letters are of little value to MD

Only 1 DO letter is needed, but it can’t hurt I guess?

I did this but as one letter speaking to me as a student and as a TA

I had 5, 3 science, 1 non science, one physician, but you should have at least 2 science and 1 non

Preferably MD to MD and DO to DO but if its all you got use it

Sure

Stay in concat with that person and/or use a letter derive, I used interfolio
