Hey guys,

All this time, I was under the impression that you had to have ~3 science LORS but I read in a thread a while back that you had to have a LOR from a non science prof as well. Does anyone know which schools require this?




I hate LORs.............😴😴😴

Pretty sure it's just 2 science LORS and 1 dentist for most schools.

Most schools say they req 3 letters of which 2 must be from science profs and third one could be from either non sci, another sci or a dentist.😎

Except of course USC which SCREWS EVERYTHING up by requestion 2 LORS from BCP professor....not any science, just BCP! So frustrating. Now I have to go around asking random profs!

Oohhh non sci OR dentist! I think I'd rather have a dentist LOR anywho😀.
Thanks so much for clearing that up guys!

Idk if I'm even gunna bother applying to USC anyway so I'm not too worried 😛

Cheers to preparing for the upcoming application cycle!!

Ou and I got three letters from sci profs (physics, genetics, med micro) and one from a dentist that I shadowed.

If you can have someone who knows you REALLY well and you know the professor can write you a killer letter, ask for one!! I had 8 letters when I applied.
