Hi Guys,
I'm looking for advice regarding LORs. I have been reading on this forum that many applicants for OCS have letters from active officers. My background is academic and as such, most of my letter writers will be professors. Do letters from active officers add much to an application if they will only have the opportunity to "interview" me once before writing? Should I just stick to those who know me well and can speak knowledgeably about my achievements and character? I may have the opportunity to arrange and interview with a retired officer if that would carry any weight.
Any advice is appreciated!
