I have LORs from 2 DPMs and 1 Neuroscience prof I did research for. Do y'all think this is sufficient?

yep

I don't need 2 science teachers?

not to sound snobby, but if the requirements on some of the school's websites say a committee letter or 2 science letters and a DPM letter, don't you think you need one more science letter.

And by science I'm pretty sure it includes all sciences - when I applied last year I got one from my statistics professor because it fell in the math and stat dept.

This is just my 2 cents. you might be able to get away with what you currently have but if you want to make sure the best thing to do is call the schools personally. Good luck - I know finding a professor to write is sometimes difficult!

Don't worry too much about it people get in without any letters the schools are usually pretty lax about those things.

You need whatever is required by the school. If they ask for 2 professors and 1 DPM letter and say they are mandatory then that's what you need. Some schools may offer you an interview if they like the rest of your application, but they will want to see your letters before they make a final decision.

^The above post makes me cringe, why are you spreading non sense like that? All it does is make people take the profession even less seriously.

I talked to Scholl today. They told me that only 1 letter from a professor is acceptable. In my case I am using 1 professor, 1 DPM, and 1 former employer because I felt that my former employer would write a much more genuine letter than a professor I didn't know as well.

Kim Young at Scholl is very helpful for anyone who has questions.
