Hello, I am new here and I'd like to get some advice/feedback from you. I'm planning to apply in June for dental schools and looking into professors for LORs these days. I have three professors in my major department who know me well (one is the advisor and the other two have taught me in Human Anatomy and Radiology). The only concern is that none of them are related to so-called "pre-dental courses" (orgo, gen chem, cell bio, etc.). I did pretty well on those courses, but since they were huge lecture classes, the professors don't really know me in person.
Should I stick to the three professors I have in mind or try to get LORs from the professors teaching orgo, cell bio, and so on?
Please give me some advice or feedback. I'd really appreciate your help. Thank you.

Definitely get the LORs from teachers who know you well. They don't HAVE to be from prerequisite courses unless specified by the school. Check with the school's websites to be sure. 🙂
