A.T. Still in Arizona wants a letter from a D.O. "who you shadowed for more than 20 hours." OK, this is sudden for me. Now it needs to be for more than 20 hours? I shadowed a D.O., but it honestly was not for that many hours. Should I go ahead and cross them off and not apply? It costs 70 dollars to apply and they'll be able to see from my primary that I didn't shadow him for that long. I just don't want to send in a secondary for nothing.
 
I don't know if they actually check this stuff, but I would never advise you to lie on your secondary. Is there any way that you can go back to the DO and shadow him for an addition X amount of hours? If you shadow for 2 full days, that's 16 hours right there.
