I'm thinking about applying to two specialties. Do I need to have my letter writers tailor my letter to a specific specialty or can they write me a general letter that can apply to any residency program? One office of undergraduate medical education was very adamant that the letters should be general in case you change your mind during the app process but I spoke to some residents in specialties to which I am applying that emphasized it was crucial that the letters be specific...any thoughts? Requesting 6 LORs to cover both specialties is very difficult.
