I have three letters in my interfolio account: pre-med committee, econ professor, basketball coach. I have a letter from a physician on the way, but I'm not sure how long he is going to take. The schools I need to send letters to right now are Hopkins, Yale, WashU, and MCG. Of those 4, only MCG asks for a letter from a physician. Yale says all it needs is a letter from the pre-med advisory committee or three individual letters. WashU asks for the committee letter and a letter from any particularly important extracurricular activity. Hopkins asks for the pre-med committee and a work reference if you have worked somewhere longer than a year. My question is, do these schools even care about the letter from the physician? I always figured it would be important to have a letter from a doc, but it seems like they don't really care much. I'd rather not wait on his letter if they don't want it or care one way or the other. Also, are these schools set on their one letter from the pre-med committee rule, or can you send in as many as you want past the requirement?
