I've taken 2 classes with my PI, but I started doing research with her before taking her classes. We have a great relationship and she already said that she'd write a really good LOR before me asking. I was wondering if I should use her LOR as a science professor or a research LOR? Considering it's a strong one, I'd want to use it as a letter that's valued more.
I know that the general requirement is 2 science + 1 non-science + 1-2 research/volunteer/other. So, if she writes a research LOR, then I'd need 2 other science ones right? And if she writes a science one, I wouldn't have a research one? Or would her LOR count as both science+research if she talks about both? Sorry, I realize these questions sound kinda dumb, but I was just a little confused on how rigid or flexible the LOR requirements are.
