Uh oh, I was reading up on NYMC's website and I found this LOR requirement:
Quote:
If your college does not have a premedical committee a total of three (3) letters of evaluation from undergraduate faculty are required. Two (2) letters must be from science faculty (e.g.) biology, chemistry, physics, bio-medical engineering, bio-engineering, etc. who have either taught you in a class OR supervised you in independent research for which you have received credit toward your science GPA. (Math is not considered a science course for the purposes of letters of evaluation.) The third letter must be from a non-science course.
IMPORTANT NOTE: One (1) of your three letters of evaluation must be from the department in which you majored as identified on your AMCAS application - whether science or non-science.
I realized that the letters I was planning on using don't exactly fulfill these requirements. For example, I was going to use a Chemistry letter and a Math letter as my 2 science letters. It worries me that they explicitly mention math not counting as "science". Is this a pretty rigid requirement? Do I need to try and get another chemistry letter?
(By the way, my major is chemistry)
