Hi SDN,

I am hoping to apply for the 2015-2016 cycle, but I am very worried about the Letters of Reference that I will need. I graduated in 2011 and haven't kept in contact with my professors. I have a psychology professor that I did research for that I believe will write me one, but I'm not sure if that counts as a science professor. Other than that, I have been working at a long term care pharmacy since I graduated, so I know several pharmacists that can write me letters as well. I am just very worried about the ones that require a letter from a science professor. I'm thinking about taking a science class this summer solely for this purpose, but that would mean getting in my application late. Any advice?

Any response is appreciated, thank you!

Yeah I don't see many other posts stressing about the LOR as much as I am. Hopefully, my LOR from my pharmacist contacts will suffice. Thank you for the response!
