so i finally got up the guts to ask my attending for an LOR yesterday, and he tells me "to bring some stuff in and we'll go over it". i asked another attending (a younger one, who just finished residency last year) what exactly he meant by that, and she rolled her eyes and informed me he wants me to write my own ... besides the fact that this is completely unethical, how exactly do i go about doing this?? i have heard of other students having to do this ... are there samples on the internet? is there a particular format i should be using? help me please cuz im freakin out! oh, and just to answer your question before you ask, i would really like a LOR from this rotation, so while not getting one is technically an option, realisitically this is an LOR that i sort of need ...
