I am planning on applying next year for matriculation in 2017. I was a non-science major in college who completed all the premed requirements on the side. I didn't really connect with my science professors at all in college. Yea, I went to their classes and visited their offices when I had questions, but in the intro sciences, I never really felt like I had that much to talk to them about. My advisor was in the English department. I know several of my English professors quite well, and I've asked them to write letters of recommendation before and they were happy to do so. It's possible that I have unrealistic expectations of how familiar one is before he/she is comfortable asking for a rec letter. Many of the schools I'm applying to require that you have at least two recommendations from science professors, and I'm not really sure what to do about this. I'll be taking some post bacc classes in the spring, and my plan was to try really hard to connect with those professors and ask some of them for letters of recommendation. It seems like a letter of rec for med school is a really serious thing, though, and thus, I feel a little awkward asking for one after just one semester with a professor. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Also, I graduated in 2012.
