I hope but she is not really care because she said she knew some people had better reasons for choosing medicine school. yes, there were two reference letters which were one academic and one non-academic. after she emailed in last minute and a reply came: Please submit the file with the proper naming convention as described in the instructions. The deadline time was cutoff at that time. so who knows, maybe it was one reason or not. No, i don't know anyone else because in her school only one could apply.
