Hi friends i am new here.
During my electives a few of my attendings were ready to give me Lor (which was last year).
They said they would write and keep it and will mail it when i need.
Now i started on my ERAS and so i contacted them.
One of them backed off saying she can't (she was the most interactive one and i had really thought that she would give an Lor).
And the two others have not replied to my mail (i have even sent a reminder email and a phone call).
I am so tensed....i am one Lor short.
I don't know how to apply with just two lors.
Is this a common phenomenon for attendings to first say yes and then NO?
Why don't they say NO the first time itself if they cant write one?
What should i do now?
Please help.
thank you.
