adjectives in letters of rec

<p>does anyone remember the thread which describes words that are good to use in letters of rec?</p>

<p>I think it was started by curmudgeon.</p>

<p><a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=36494&referrerid=26707%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=36494&referrerid=26707&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I hope that link works and that it's the one you want. If not, you can search: it was started by curmudgeon in the Parent Cafe and was called "on cc, connotations are the most important"</p>

<p>I don't know which words are good. However, if I were an admissions officer, I'd reject any application which contained the "p" word. It has become truly trite. Grump, grump, grump...</p>
