How much weight is put on letters of recommendation for medical school?
How much weight do medical schools put on letters of recommendation? Would a short and impersonal letter from your professor kill admission chances? What if I were to get nice letters from people I have worked for (from volunteer places, work employees, etc) but the letters from professors were lukewarm?
Unless you've done research for a professor, a letter of recommendation from a professor doesn't add much to your application, as your grade speaks to the quality of student you were.
It's not uncommon for professors to be asked for LoR's and if they don't know a student well, provide a 'form letter' type of LoR. Again, this isn't adding anything more than what your grade already indicates.
It is far better to get LoR's from people who can attest to your character and compassion. LoR's from medical people get noticed, as will any from a research scientist. If your volunteer experience was in a health related environment, LoR's from senior managers of the program would be good.
But a LoR from Suzie, the cashier, is worthless.
Just as a FYI, LoR's should always be on letterhead, too.
