My favorite professor from undergrad taught me Statistics (listed as a Math department course) and Psychology as a Natural Science 2/Behavioral Neuroscience (counted as a Psychology course). He has also promised me a glowing LoR. He would count as a non-science LoR, right? I'm only curious because Stat obviously contributed to my BCPM GPA and it was a very biological psychology course, though it was still a psych course.
What are your thoughts on this? I know most schools want two science and 1 non-science LoR. If he would count as science then I would have to get another non-science LoR, but I'm pretty sure I know who to ask. I also know sometimes schools want three science LoRs but I'm not sure if I'll be able to get a third one. The two I should have taught me last semester and I haven't spoken too much to the other prof that taught me for more than one course in about a year and a half (this was stupid, I know)... I'm not sure if he'll still write me one.
Lastly, if I can't get my hands on a third science LoR, do you think one from a doctor I've worked with or the nurse manager that was my supervisor for most of clinical experience would be a good alternative?
