Hi all!
I graduated with a Computer Science/Math degree in 2016. I was always interested in healthcare (I took most med school pre-reqs as an undergrad), but I loved Math and tech and opted to go that route because I wasn't sure where I wanted to go in healthcare yet (I also think tech knowledge is valuable in every field). I worked as an engineer in the tech department of a prestigious firm for two years, and during that time made the decision to go to medical school. I've been taking classes at Harvard Extension School since spring 2018 to complete my application. I quit my tech job in May 2018 and have been working as a medical scribe since then.
My recommendation letters will be as follows:
1. My manager at my tech job
2. Another superior at my tech job
3. A bio professor at Harvard Extension School
4. A physics professor from undergrad
5. The doctor I currently scribe for, who I have a close relationship with
I feel confident that these will be strong letters, but I'm wondering if they're enough. I'm hesitant because I'm not sure if I need more/different letters. What's your advice for me?
