I have a LOR from one of my chemistry research professors in the United Kingdom from study abroad. Does this not count towards a science LOR?
 
can i get a committee letter from a summer program i did at UNC? Do you think they would be allowed to collect my letters so i don't have to deal with all these diff. requirements from all these schools? my school doesn't have a committee.

Where did you do most of your course work? You should get 3-4 recommendation if your school doesn't have a committee.

i have all these LOR's sitting in Interfolio, but all these schools require something diff... some require 1 bio 1 physics 1 chem, some 3 science, some 1 science and 1 humanities....2 bios.... i only have chem (mostly research) and 1 humanity..my best LOR is coming from my research professor and i read off of BYU's pre dental website that these are not likely to be counted towards "science".... makes no sense..... i just dont want to have to worry about it ya know? thats y i was seein if this summer program can do something that will count as a committee letter.

Submit 1 letter from your shadowing dentist, one from Biology, one from Chemistry and one from whoever you like (researcher, boss, humanities, math, physics etC)
