Unfortunately, there was a miscommunication and I thought the deadline for my pre-health committee to form the packet w/ all the LoRs was further out.
I'm a TX resident so I'm using TMDSAS and will be submitting my LoRs individually through interfolio. I've had many people tell that 3 LoRs are required with at least two science profs (I'm only close w/ 1 science prof). Others have told me only two are required with at least one science prof. I've researched through TMDSAS and haven't really found a clear cut answer on the required number of letters from science or non-science profs. I already have 1 letter finished from an MD while waiting on the other from the science prof. I'm quite anxious considering TMDSAS opens next week...
How many LoR's are required for TMDSAS and how many must be science professors? And would anyone recommend not using interfolio to submit individual letters?
Also, does anyone have experience with not using their pre-health committee for applying? My target school is UT Southwestern and they're familiar with my school's pre-health committee and will notice, so I'm wondering how bad this will be for me.
Any type of feedback is much appreciated. Thanks
