I have a committee letter and I have shadowed an MD. Some school have mentioned in their secondaries that they will except either an MD or a DO. If I submit my committee letter, the MD letter, and a letter from my research professor who taught Biochemistry to the DO students at OSUCOM for 6 years, do you think that would be adequate? 😳
 
As long as it isn't one of the schools that requires a DO LOR. You'll need to check with the schools you are interested in to see whether they recommend or acutally require a DO letter.

btw: the professor you mention was the best biochem prof we had. I was sad to see him go.

Yeah, Dr. Rickords is really amazing. Do you think it would help get me into OSU if I submitted his letter?
