Hi all,
So I have a dilemma, one of my letter writers is an older doctor who is a bit... technologically challenged and apparently hadn't had to write an LOR in a long time, because he had his staff give it to my mom (one of his patients) instead of using the AMCAS and TMDSAS instructions I'd emailed them, and she forwarded it on to me because she didn't know better either. I couldn't help but see it and read it (it wasn't super long). This means it's not confidential any longer even though it's marked as such on the apps... I don't know if there's any way to change the status of those letters after the fact, but I'm not sure how to alleviate the dissonance I'm feeling now about all the essays about honor codes and honesty I've been writing. What should I do?
