Hello everyone,
I'm a US citizen IMG and will be taking a Path elective that will last from the end of August untill mid-September. I was wondering if I should wait to apply to any Path programs untill I get a Path LOR or just apply on Sept1 with my 2 non-Path LOR and submit my Path LOR at a later time? Thanks to anyone with some input!

Just appy as soon as you can and submit the path LOR when it comes in. You'll likely still get many invitations to interview even if your application is incomplete.
