I'm currently held at one of my top choices.

I'm thinking of sending in 2 additional LORs... including one from a postdoctoral fellow who I've worked extensively with in my lab.

Does anyone think this would be a good idea? I just wonder if they might not regard her letter too much because she's not faculty. The other person I'm thinking of asking for a LOR is faculty - I've taken a small seminar with him, and did well in the class. However, I think the postdoc would have more to say about my personal strengths.

Feedback? Thanks!!

i think it's fine, especially if the postdoc is your supervisor

In every law school admissions interview ever, admissions deans invariably recommend getting a letter from someone who knows your academic work best, regardless of position. Get the letter from the postdoc.
