Hi all,
I've recently begun asking people for letters of recommendation. Currently, I have a PT that is the head of PSU's physical therapy dept, a professor in my major that I have been doing research for since january, and a PTA that is the VP of a physical therapy company that runs 12 clinics. My resume is pretty good but some of my grades from freshman year were C's because I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, which is hindering my gpa a little. So I'm really relying on good LOR's to help my application. Here's my question:
Because you are only allowed a maximum of 4 references on the PTCAS, who should I ask to write my final LOR? The decision is between a PT and Podiatrist. The PT offered to write me a recommendation without me even asking, but the Podiatrist is someone that I have known since I was in sixth grade and she knows me very well. Which person should I ask?
