One letter writer of mine recommend me to waive rights because he said in this way letters weigh more. He was a PD for many years, so I guess what he said makes sense. Later on, it turns out his LOR is terrific from the feedback of interviewers. Most letter writers mention if you waive the rights or not in the letter. But some interviewers may not have time to notice this. A couple of interviewers got my files 5 minutes before the interview and they seemed only reading the writer titles. But it also depends. One of my friend got terrible letter from his former boss in a sealed envolope. Luckily, he found out and didn't use it at all.

You so welcome, Bravo! Actually I have no idea if ECFMG will check something when they scan and post the letter to refect the waiver of rights. Maybe... I finished the majority of my interviews. I put good ones in November and December. Not sure if I did right. No prematch. Kind of being excited during each interview, and felt like I have good chance... But later when excitement fades, now I only feel anxious and panic. They may forget me totally with time. So many applicants, as you know. Happy holiday to you, other buddies and your families!
