Re: About Waiving One's Right To See An bingousmle - 07-31-10 11:32 the waiving of ones rights to see the LOR though i feel is a double edged sword, though it makes the letter more credible you never have a chance to know what has been written in it.

Send it to ERAS.It is not too late.U can send it yurself as well because the LOR will be in a sealed envelope.The better option wud be if the Physician sends it him/herself.
Good Luck!

4 weeks is the maximum time ERAS takes.It means that documents will be uploaded within this time.
So u can send it to ERAS.
May be it helps u!

Ye, that also stands true.One may need the LORs in future as well.
Bingo,it is a catch-22 situation.
Good Luck!
