Hi neuro crowd, sorry for the med student question. I have multiple great rec letters from neurologists, but have somehow found myself without letters from anyone else. I could easily get a letter from a Psych attending with whom I recently worked well. It's been a full year since I did medicine - I did OK in the rotation, but being a new M3 at the time, I completely forgot to ask for a letter. I'm sure my attendings have long since forgotten me.
Will a lack of a medicine letter hurt me in applying to neurology? Isn't it pretty much required to get a medicine prelim? And is it extremely poor form, even for categorical programs, to only have letters from neurologists? Any suggestions appreciated.
