lostandmaybefound Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 A question regarding choosing an appropriate service referee: would it be a bad idea to choose a referee that was NOT one of your verifiers for an activity? For example, in a hospital volunteering setting, I used the hospital's volunteer coordinator to verify the activity; however, would like to choose a different individual who I interacted with most during my time there as my service referee. I personally feel like they would be able to provide a more genuine and personal account of my character and suitability for medicine rather than the coordinator would, whom I rarely interacted with. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenchpress Posted January 3, 2018 Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Use the best possible reference you have. There are loads of good reasons why someone might use a different reference than their verifier, and admissions almost certainly won’t care or notice. (And if it makes you feel better, I don’t think think I used a single reference as a verifier). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
