Hey everyone. I am a non-US Caribbean IMG applying to IM this season. I almost have all of my LORs ready, but I have one LOR designated as a DC. This person is the physician I did my core IM rotation with, and is very influential (CEO, director of many big medical things, etc.) in his location/area, and told me he would be considered as one, and uploaded the LOR. I heard another student talking that he "may not be considered as such due to things they read online". I am currently very confused, and was wondering if I should somehow try to get him to reupload without choosing "DC"? Btw, ECFMG has approved the letter he uploaded. Am I stressing/panicking for no reason?
Many places say they require 3 LOR, preferably at least 1 from IM. I currently have 2 IM (One is DC i wrote about), and 1 from FM (recommending to IM) accepted, and waiting on another IM LOR. Would sending 4 LORs, including this DC, hurt my chances if it's not the type of "DC" they expect?
I would appreciate any help, as I didn't know where else to ask. Thanks!
