So I just graduated with my BS degree in dietetics in May,but I won't apply for dental school for another year and a half since I am trying to get a few more prereqs in and more shadowing hours. Since graduating, I have sent a few emails here and there trying to stay close with my old instructors/professors, so that when I need the letter of evaluation in a few years they will be more likely to remember me. But the only ones that have been responding to my friendly emails are my instructors with MS degrees. These instructors are not TAs, but they are the course instructors who are Master's level dietitians with the RD credential, making them more qualified to teach upper level nutrition courses than someone with just an MS degree. Would it be THAT looked down upon if I received a LOR from an MS degreed instructor than a PhD? I know a PhD would look better, but my MS degreed instructors appear much more willing to stay in touch with me and help me. Thus I feel they would write a much more personal and frankly better LOR than my former PhD professors. So I guess the question is should I get a better, more personal letter of reference from an MS degreed instructor or a more generic, less personal letter of reference from a PhD level instructor. Anyone else have a similar problem? Thanks!
