General Is a letter of recommendation from a long commit required?

[Goro]

I have been doing research for 2 semesters and 1 summer. However, my pI wasn't so enthused about the progress I made in lab. Although I came in and did my part, my work didn't amount to anything and my pI is kind of frustrated at me. I originally thought he would write me a very strong letter of recommendation considering how much hours I have put into the lab (about 800 hours). However, now I feel like he could hurt my application very much if he were to write me a letter of recommendation. My question is, will ADCOMs raise an eye at my application if I didn't have a letter to supplement my application when I have been here for so long?

No.

That’s all? No explanation here?

Medical schools are not looking for graduate students.

What we want are letters of recommendation from people who will give a good evaluation of you.
