honestly, ive been told by alot of people that in the end, your LORs do little for your application...and this really irked me, not because i dont think your GPA or MCAT dont matter, but largely because i've asked professors and people that ive worked with closely to write my recommendations. ive spent time talking to them about my personal struggles and my future career aspirations. and i know many (perhaps not all) recommenders put a great deal of time into writing LORs.
so really then, whats the point of LORs if theyre not going to play a role in your admission? why not just do away with it if every student gets to write his/her own recommedations?!
sorry if this seems like a rant
