Do I meet LOR requirement with these recs?

If I have the following letters of rec sent to AADSAS, will that meet the LOR requirements for most dental schools?

Mathematics Prof. (Probability Theory-upper div)
Chemistry Prof. (Intermediate Inorganic Chem-upper div)
Psychology Prof. (Intro to Psych-lower div)
Dentist (who I have shadowed)
Boss (health center where I have worked for 4 years)

I have another rec letter from a biochem lab prof. (upper div) in the career office, but it was writted for med school. I would rather avoid using it unless you think the above won't meet all the requirements.

What do you guys think?

Most schools require a letter from a biology professor, so I don't think you're done yet.

I'm thinking you should have another science course, preferably biol or ochem to substitute either the math or psyc letter. I've heard that some school require at least 2 science letters, so I'm not sure whether math or psyc counts.

Could an anatomy or physiology professor-written letter substitute for the required biology course?

if you send a Dental school a letter that was tailored for the med school, they will shred your application.

You really need to check the website of each of the schools you are applying to so you can make sure that you have all the requirements met. 🙂

I guess you should be fine... yeah read the stuff on the websites. It's kinda ******ed how they're so anal about these things. I pretty much can't apply for any schools requiring biochem letters since I worked with two bio profs the past year.

some schools say to get a LOR from either your predent advisory board (cover letter) or one from a biochem/chem + one from bio + one from math/physics... so if i had 3 bio profs send LORS to the advisory board and they made the cover letter, would i still be okay even without the math/chem LORS?
