Hello,

If a residency program website states that they require three letters of recommendation, is it okay to send four letters or should I stick to sending three as they asked? I failed a board exam, so is it better to send the extra fourth letter, despite the program asking for three, to provide further support of my application? I appreciate any advice. Thank you in advance!
