So I met with my premed advisor today, and they determined that they are not going to be sending out anymore committee letters . If a student was going have a committee letter with their application, they were supposed to have all of their LOR's in by about April 1st so that they could do interviews and determine whether or not the student was prepared and a good candidate for medical school. I am extremely frustrated because I was busy studying for the MCATs and I hadn't had the time to prepare my app, and now the premed committee decided that me not having any letters in (which should be in by the end of this week) means they won't write me a committee letter.
The premed advisor said that not having a committee letter from the premed dept would probably raise a red flag, because our school is known for writing committee letters, and now she was advising that I apply for next year's cycle. I understand why they advise us to apply early, but they are punishing me for applying late because they have other obligations to write the remaining committee letters and prepare for fall classes. I don't understand why they can't evaluate my candidacy when the other LOR's come in. I'm screwed.
What do I do now?
