I am sorry if this question has been posted before but I have searched and cannot find a straight answer.
I was talking to my premed advisor about LORs. She told me that she would send out a committee letter to each school that I received a secondary. However, she does not collect and send LORs from personal references like doctors, employers, etc. She told me that I needed to have my personal references (P.R.'s) send the letters to each school.
A. Is this correct, do I have to wait for each secondary to come in and then, for each secondary, ask my P.R.'s to send a letter? Thats going to be a real pain to my P.R.'s if I receive around 7-8 secondarys.
B. Can I just ask my P.R.'s to send me their letters, so I can just xerox them and send them in myself?
C. What extra identification info should my P.R.'s include with each letter. Ex. Name, SSN, School name, etc...
BTW, I received a below average MCAT in April, and I am retaking it in August. Despite having received a "preliminary" secondary application from GW, I am not really expecting to many secondaries until October when the August MCAT is released.
Appreciate any knowledge you can shed,
