Hi,
I am in the process of obtaining letters of recommendation. I thought to use Interfolio. However, is it alright if I don't select the confidentiality tab in Intefolio ("This request is for a confidential letter or evaluation.") because I want to be able to see the letters?
I want to see the letters regardless so I could ask my professors to show me the letter they have written before sending a confidential Interfolio request, right?
The reason why I am so persistent on this matter to see the evaluations beforehand is because I once applied for a competitive internship and manually collected recommendations. Out of the four I received, one person said I was an "average" student and didn't really give me the support I needed from a letter.
I don't want to make such a mistake when applying to medical school...
