Hi Shumaila... 1..No, Eras doesn't confirm it by calling the writers to check their authencity( they just check that the paper is original and not a photocopy).. 2..Its better that LOR is written on a letterhead..i never heard of anything other than that.. 3..again, its better that it is written by a senior doctor and not a resident..never heard of that either.. hope it helps..GL

Hi ...min 3 LORs..there is no max but i guess ERAS will upload only 4 LORs for one program(get as many from different specialties, send them to eras and assign according to ur choice).. you can assign any LORs to any specialities but its better if they r from the same specialities..for Family practice different LORs from various specialities is a good idea... GL..
