<p>^^I disagree on both points. </p>
<p>The strongest LOR is the one written by the person who knows you well and can write specific comments about you, that’s what makes a strong LOR, not the position of the writer. </p>
<p>An employer LOR cannot replace an ‘Instructor’ LOR, like the 2 required for CA schools. It can be sent as a supplemental LOR, but not as one of the required Instructor LORs.</p>
