How many LORs did you have total?


  • Total voters
    82
neurosci, physio, writing, and dentist
 
Two environmental science professors, Organic Chem 2 professor, and dentist.
 
physics, bio, chem, dentis and dean of med school
 
O-Chem, Evolutionary Biology, English, Dentist, Former Employer
 
bio prof, o chem prof, dentist, and dental clinic coordinator (where I volunteered).
 
Dentist, co-worker, chem prof, bio prof...all submitted to pre-health advisor for a committee letter...which I guess makes a fifth LOR...
 
2 bio profs, 1 history prof (needed a non-sci one for unlv), 1 dentist and volunteer coordinator at the dental clinic I volunteered at.
 
2 bio prof, 1 chem prof, dentist, 1 character reference and a committee letter.
 
3 Science (Bio, Chem, Biochem), 1 Non-Science, 1 Dentist, 1 Community Service

Mix and match based on what school you are sending them to. I ended up using all the LORs except the Non-Science LOR, so you may not actually need that if you have a 3rd Science LOR.

You should be okay with 2 Science, 1 Sci or Non-Sci, and 1 Dentist for almost every school. I think I had to get 3 Science for Pitt.
 
dentist, o chem prof, Anatomy prof, employer, evolution prof/research supervisor
 
Genetics, physics, ethics, and dentist.

1.Orthodontist - Worked for him for 6 years
2. I was a TA -- the professor that taught the class
3. Bio- Prof for both Cell Biology and Endocrinology
4. Physics I & II (Same prof).
5. Chemistry I and analytical chemistry (Same Prof)
6. Business writing and Technical writing (Same Prof)

I made sure that all of my letters where from professors / people that really know me well🙂

How do you "mix and match"?

AADSAS only allows 4 LORs to be uploaded and unless a school specifies certain a certain LOR, you don't get to send the more. How do people like Noelle use all 6?

since i can only upload 4, i have to cancel one of my bio profs.
