Also, does anyone have info on what, if anything, I should provide to people who are writing letters of rec? For instance, my prof told me to let him know of anything I thought I would like for him to include (but that it was up to his discretion whether he would include it or not). I was surprised that the DVM who will be writing mine has written a couple before. 2, in like 30 years lol. Could I provide her with sort of a direction on what they are looking for? For instance, ask her to focus on my ability to handle animals, my drive to be a vet, my dedication, etc? I'm not sure what they are looking for in the letters to make someone "stand out". For instance, if they really want x, I could tell her "the vet schools are specifically looking for x in the letter". Does that make sense?
