I am just wondering if with the AACOMAS app. we need to also start sending LORs directly to them??? I thought i read a post on here about someone mentioning the LORs need to be together and sent directly to AACOMAS??
 
LORs from your prof should be sent by the premed office if you plan to use them. Or you can use an LOR service such as interfolio.com

Under no circumstances do you mail LORs to AACOMAS.

so the LORs are sent during secondaries, after we submit the primary app. , or do we have the premed office/instructor send them like now? I dont even have my LOR's together yet.

Yup. LORS are submitted with secondaries.

When you recieve the secondary it will give you the details of exactly what the school's requirements are for LORS. Don't wait to find out in the secondary; research the schools you are interested in and have your LORS ready to go when you submit the secondary. For example, PCOM "requires" a committee letter. There are some ways to work around this, but it might take some extra time. My suggestion is to start getting your LORS together now.
 
if a school that someone applied to last time has the LOR's that the person sent and if that someone reapplies to that school this time does he/she need to get new LOR's or will the ones he/she sent the first suffice?
