Hey, everyone! I'm currently in the process of applying for residency programs in family medicine, and I'm a bit confused about letters of recommendation. Can someone clarify a few things for me? How many letters of recommendation should I aim for, and are there specific people I should ask to write them? Also, what makes a letter of recommendation stand out to program directors? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Moreover, consider your clinical experiences. Make sure you have a well-rounded mix of inpatient and outpatient rotations, and highlight any leadership roles or community involvement related to family medicine. This demonstrates your commitment to the field. Lastly, don't forget about your interview preparation. Research the programs you're interested in, practice your responses to common questions, and be ready to discuss your experiences and motivations for pursuing family medicine.
