Can I e-submit without completed LOE? Help!!

Can I e-submit without completed LOE ? Only one out of 4 LOE is completed. I have not chose the fourth recommender. Can I still e-submit and update this LOE later? 😕
I guess you could, but do you have all your bases covered regarding the other letters? (science professors)

what do you mean by the bases? do you mean two science professors? so far, I have 2 dentists and a science professor. Is this okay?
Most schools have different requirement, however, MOST require 2 science professors so you might want to get that part fixed asap.
But its OK to submit the application without all the letters in yet, correct? I also had only one teacher send it yet, and the others were taking too long so I just went ahead and submitted the application. They can still send their letters into aadsas though right?
Thanks guys! So my question is.... I don't have my second science instuctor yet. I emailed one of my professors this wk but I haven't gotten a response. Can I still e-submit now and add him later? or do I have to "designate all four recommenders" before I e-submit?
My other question is... only one of my recommenders uploaded my rec. Can I still e-submit before other recommenders upload LOE?

Yes, you can, but you honestly might want to get this part figured out asap.
I've been emailing mine telling them to HURRY THE **** UP but they're kinda, well....slow so I don't know what else to do.

If you've been literally been telling them to "HURRY THE *BLANK* UP!" that might be a reason for their delay.

Otherwise, I'm sure they'll come through for you 😛
You could always drop by their offices and remind them; this was effective for me 🙄

My ochem professor was being slow, so I did this and then he had it in the next day.
Mine are so ****ing slow man. I'm really getting annoyed. I emailed them yesterday and not a single one replied back. WTF?!

Professors are not obligated to write a letter for you. They are doing you a favor. So stop complain and spam their email. Go to their office and talk to them so they will know whom you are.
I do feel you pain so good luck.

Yeah except going to their office is kinda complicated when you're 70 miles away, and out of school

still better than being 2 yrs out and 1000 miles from school waiting on letters

Ouch.
I've got two of my letters finished, and sent in...the one guy I wasn't expecting to be slow (the dentist I worked for) is taking his sweet time. 🙄
Yeah but when it's electronic, I expect it to be relatively quick.

This is exactly what I thought. One of my LOE writers took forever! Don't get me wrong, I didn't pressure him to hurry up, but seriously, it takes less than 5 mins to upload the letter...no one is that busy. 👍

I feel ya on this. I'm only 150 miles away, but 5 years out!! My references have been amazing though. I've not been pushy and have simply kept them informed, especially when the status still said "In Progress."
So i am a bit confused. I can E submit my applications w/o all the LOE submitted but the professors still are able to submit the LOE after i have already E submitted the applications?

I'm 80% sure you can. Anyone else can confirm?
