So my advisor uploaded my LORs and committee letters today into AMCAS and into interfolio. I noticed that I am able to see the full packet, including the evaluations and LORs I was under the impression that all of this had to remain confidential? Do I have an issue here or was I simply misinformed? Thanks.

there are several types of uploads/letters in interfolio. some are confidential, some are not.

for medical school applications, it's all supposed to be confidential. non-confidential letters will not fly for med school. you must have sent your advisors the non-confidential upload option.

i think your best move from this point is to let your advisors know of your mistake. and ask them to re-upload using the confidential letter option.

EDIT: are you sure you can see the letters? for the confidential letters in interfolio, you are able to see the title of the letter but you cannot see the content.

Yep. I can see the whole document and download it. ****. I will email my advisor. Ugh.
