which programs require a non-surg specialty letter of rec?

Why don't you choose where you are going to apply and then research that information on their website. You NEED to research each program's website anyways.

do a search. I think I remember a thread about this last year.

If you were like me and applied to 75 places, that's not entirely realistic.

You may not think it's realistic, but it is to your advantage. Some places request certain specific things not included in your amcas application.

If you want to throw away your $ because you don't want to spend an extra 10 minutes looking at different websites, more power to you.

There have been threads in the past listing the requirements for each program when submitting applications. I think it makes things pretty convienient when you're applying to a sh%tload of programs and don't neceassrily have the time (especially this time of year) to hunt through each program's website to find out specifically what they ask for.

Would you happen to know the name of the thread or what I should search under.
