I thought there were only 3 LORs. I have lined up one from a periodontist for whom I work, an undergrad bio prof with whom I participated in research, and my advisor from grad school. Being out of academia for a while, I don't have access to a pre-health advisor. Should I submit just the three, or should I hunt for a mediocre fourth? I know that these will be solid, but I'm not so sure I could find a wonderful fourth.
 
1 committe ftw.. includes all ur lor's!

I'm a bit of a non-traditional applicant, so a committee letter is not an option anymore. I graduated from undergrad in 2006, and I went to grad school in a completely different area. Thanks though.
