on the ASDOH secondary, they ask for contact info of two people that wrote my LORs. I sent a committee packet with four letters. Should I just pick any two?

Also, In the area that they have listed for volunteer experience... they only have 3 slots, but say to email them any additional information. I have volunteered at about 6 different organizations and would like to include them all since my gpa and DAT scores aren't really that high. Would it be pointless to email them additional info and let them know i volunteered 25 hours at X and 30 hours at Y??

Last but not least, for the essay question "why Arizona?", would a short paragraph be sufficient? It says I have up to 500 words, however, I don't think I could write more than 150 or so with it sounding like bs and fluff.
 
I know what you mean about that secondary too. For the professors; pick the ones that you feel gave u the best letters as well as the ones they can contact that would most likely still remember you. I picked a research professor that knows me well and the oral surgeon I work for. I have a committee packet as well with 4 letters in there too.

In regard to the essay, just write what you can. I think it's really pointless to try to BS because you might be questioned about it during an interview; so just be honest and write what you feel is necessary to answer the question.
