I had a question about the LORs......Let's say I have a total of 3 LORs/references that I submit through PharmCAS and one school requires 2 LORs while another school requires 3. Would I be able to choose which LOR goes to which school or will all of my LORs be sent to every school I apply to?

Your complete pharmcas package is sent to all schools you apply to. The one that requires 2 will get all 3. They will likely go ahead and read all of them.

They will read all of them, however they will only choose the 2 that they want! (If determining a candidate vs candidate, they may look at the 3rd LOR to find the winner!)
