Yes, I have a student who plans to apply to medical school next year. He's currently volunteering in the medical field, took the MCAT this year and got an excellent score, and plans to take one semester of coursework in the Fall, but is lacking a plan or good plan to obtain LoRs... Please provide your best suggestions.
Me: Maybe he could start visiting any professors he had that are still working there with questions about other stuff like research even though he's not in classes, and go after the committee letter IF it is not going to have a bias against nontraditionals*? If the committee letter is out of the question, then this could be more difficult.
*I am using "nontraditional" to mean having graduated long ago. Grades are fine.
