Resume/CV, and LORs
Two topics:
I know many people send CVs instead of resumes, but which would be best for an MSW? I know a CV goes into detail, but aren't there more acitvities on a resume? The schools I'm applying to as for either one, so does one outweigh the other?
Also, I need 3 LORs, and I already know 2 I'm definitely going to use:
1. A professor I had for 3 classes, and that I was a teaching assistant for twice.
2. A researcher (PhD) in my school that I was a research assistant for. (though i'm going into the medical field)
I am currently volunteering at a hospital (i am going for my MSW, but at the hospital, I volunteer with geriatrics), and my supervisor said she would write a letter for me, but should I try to get another professor instead? I know she'll write a great letter, and the other professor I'd use is someone I had twice and don't really know personally. There's also an older grad student who said she's write a letter for me, but I think my supervisor's letter would weigh more with the grad schools.
Who do you think would be the best candidate for my third LOR?
Thank you!
