Letters of recommendation are extremely important for success in the residency match. How important are these letters? In a recent survey of program directors in 24 specialties, letters were rated second in importance. The only factor rated more important in making interview decisions was the USMLE Step 1 score. In this episode, Drs. Rajani Katta and Samir Desai discuss how medical students and applicants should choose potential letter writers. You'll learn what role the rank of the letter writer plays, as well as how to request letters and how to provide helpful information to your letter writers to ensure the strongest letter possible. You’ll also learn what to do if your letter writer has requested that you provide them with a draft letter of recommendation. For more information, visit us at www.TheSuccessfulMatch.com.
