Just sent off my first PM&R rec on Thursday. 👍
My next 3 PM&R rotations are at actual residency programs and I'm aiming to get LoRs from them as well. This means that invites will be sent out while I'm sending some of these recs in.
Is there a way for all the programs to see that my application file has been updated? This whole concept of electronically submitting LoRs has not worked out the way I'd hope as a bunch of my current LoR writers and the hospital secretaries are simply not doing them. Will I have to call every program I'm applying to (which is between 50-60) to inform them that my application has been updated with a new LoR from XXXXXXX residency program?
This all being said, say I don't match PM&R this year (and am unable to scramble, in the event that they are open positions after the match)...will I have to submit all those LoRs again for the 2013 match or does ERAS have them scanned and saved in your electronic file?
I know it's a lot of questions - but I'd really appreciate input from the knowledgeable folks here. Thanks for all the advice up to this point. 🙂
