Hey Guys,

I am reapplying this year. I shadowed another DO this year and she is writing a LOR for me. She is on faculty at my dream school. I really want to submit my secondaries but I am waiting on her letter. I have a DO letter from last cycle that I can use as well... Do you guys think I can submit with my old LOR and then update with a the new one, or should I just wait?


Thanks!

If you really want to use the new letter then I would wait.

Personally I'd just send in the one I have and call it a day.
