CCOM and DO rec letter?

[LynnGweeny]

Hi everyone
Just wanted to know whether anyone knew if Midwestern University CCOM is stringent on getting a DO letter of recommendation.
At present I am working a full-time job, a part-time job and taking two evening classes- so it is pretty difficult for me to shadow a DO at this point. Moreover, I feel that my MD rec letter will be more worthwhile since it comes from someone I've worked with extensively.
I would greatly appreciate any tips in this arena if anyone has advice to dish out.

Just got my CCOM letter on Friday for a mid-October interview date. The wait is finally over!!! And yes, a D.O. letter is required. Good luck.

Congrats MedPuck - I'm really happy for you, I hope it (and the other Chicago interviews that you're sure to get) goes well. It was great to finally meet you - best of luck in Chicago and congrats again! Liz

Hi PalCareGirl, Glad you had a safe trip home and it was equally great to meet you also. You should be getting your CCOM letter too, I think you told me you applied. Have fun at Nova and best of luck.

Wasabi, I will call on Monday to see if I can book the Friday October 19th date. Did you also get an offer? Best of luck.
