LOR dilemma - Sci or Arts?

[alexrgross]

I have 4 LOR's on AMCAS now.

The top two come from :
A human physiology professor
A supervisor @ volunteer experience

My question is, of the two others :
A physics prof
A humanities prof
Which one should I include for the schools which require 3 LOR's

I have no way of knowing which one is stronger, and I only was in one
quarter of class w/ each of them...I know both profs personally, but
i have been more academically active with the physics professor. However,
he humanities prof is an excellent writer.
Got an A- in both classes.

Humanites (medical humanities class) or physics (general physics)?

I would look first at the school's requirements (moreso than just 3 letters) - a lot of schools require 2 letters from science professors (who have graded your work) and 1 letter from a non-science professor (who has graded your work). But, if you were in a situation where you could choose any three, I think I'd choose the physics letter because many individuals view physics as a very challenging subject, and so getting an A- in it is quite good.
