I've asked my long-time optometrist (and one of his partners) to write my LOR for my opt school application.
They both told me they won't write a letter for anyone applying to Western, Midwestestern, or Incarnate Word. They feel strongly that the new schools weren't necessary and will be substandard programs for the first 5-10 years.
I don't plan on going to any of these schools, but would consider it as a fall-back option if I couldn't get in anywhere else.
Do I commit to not applying to them, or look for another LOR from someone who doesn't know me?
