I graduated from Loyola University of Chicago in ‘21 and am applying this summer to medical school. Loyola pushed their committee advising pretty hard while I attended but at that time I was a garbage student and truthfully I was more concerned on passing my classes than thinking that far ahead. I’m in an SMP now and working part-time as well to remedy the holes in my application, but I completely overlooked applying to the pre-health advising committee at my undergrad. I have developed some great relationships with my professors in grad school and with others in the lab I work in, so I’m very confident I can gather some really strong LORs. My question is, should I just apply with the separate letters I can ask for or would it be advisable to take ANOTHER gap year (i’m already going to be at #3 when I apply) to get that committee letter?
