Reference Letter Question

[Hockey1234]

Hey guys,

Very quick question regarding LORs. If a Pharmacy School says they require only 2 LORs, but you submit 4 through PharmCAS, how does the school choose which of the 2 letters to consider? Or do they consider all 4?

Thanks!

I was told they choose 2, but I'm not sure how...

2 might be only the minimum 🙂

they usually have a requirement for the LORs (who the letter must be written by). you can find that info on the school admissions page or on the pharmcas school directory page. if you submitted 4 and they require 2 letters, the requirement is prob 1 from pharmacist and 1 from science professor (usually the case), so they will choose those 2 out of the 4

Again we are all guessing here so do call the schools if you want to find out for sure 🙂

I don't know about each school specifically. In my case they will only evaluate 2.
