"Two letters of recommendation (one from a Biology professor and one from a Biochemistry, Chemistry, Math or Physics professor) or a pre-professional composite committee letter;"

Didn't notice. I don't have a bio prof 🙁
 
Bummer, you couldn't still get one by chance? Your probaly still have time!?

I took my intro bio class over 2 years ago and did not know the professor then or now. I havent taken any other bio courses...I also submitted Tufts already. Maybe they wont notice since Im sending 4?...ha doubt it. I guess I could email the prof out of the blue and explain my situation and with a little bit of prayer to the right deities...

It says OR a committee letter. Just do the committee letter 🙂

I don't think we have committee letters at my school. Is that through one department or how do those work? The pre-dental advisor will not write one

I'm sorry but what school is this? Does your school's pre-med advisor write one? What they do is compile a bunch of letters from your professors and write a cover letter and send the packet out.
 
find a female professor and do some work "under the table" im sure you could get something worked out! 🙂

Not all schools have a pre-health committee. I graduated from a big ten university, which did not have one. Though I think we are the only BT school without one.

I'll be your professor, and I'll write you letter. 😉 You can call me Professor Beefy McManstick... Bow chicka bow wow. Wait... are you a dude or a chick? Meh, whatever... bow chicka bow wow.


Sorry for the lame jokes. My last three posts have contributed absolutely nothing to SDN. I'll be more informative after I take my DAT. I'm just SO SICK of studying!

Did you go to UW-Madison? I know they don't have one.
 
You may want to contact someone there and see what they have to say. My LORs weren't spot-on for my school regarding the professors necessary, but I was told by a head honcho that the LORs I had were just fine.

But...get that in writing if you can. I've got mine, just in case 😉
 
LTA, i am in the EXACT same position as you!!! my school doesnt have a committee nor does it have a pre-health advisor that will write a letter of rec. i called Tufts and they said they MUST have one bio and one chem.

Speaking of bow chicka wow wow, everytime I see the one in the dental office it cracks me up. The first time I saw it I nearly cried laughing.
 
Um. If you are interested in Tufts, call and ask them about that requirement. Do they specifically require a LOR from your BIO 101 professor or is it any biology related course?
