<p>I had planned on turning in three teacher recommendations. On the Harvard website, they recommend that you provide two from either sophomore or junior year. I had planned on...</p>

<p>Math Teacher - Freshman Year - continue to have a good relationship and I feel like she could speak to my character.</p>

<p>Accounting Teacher/Head of Finance Academy - Junior Year - very involved in finance academy as well as internships.</p>

<p>U.S. History Teacher - Junior Year - very good relationship and could show my strong work ethic.</p>

<p>With that being said, would it be pushing it to submit three recommendations? Should I submit a recommendation from a teacher from freshman year? Which recommendation is most expendable? If anyone could provide any help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance.</p>

<p>I’m sending three but only because the third adds a different dimension to me. I’m sending two teachers (English and science) and then one from the District Director of Curriculum because we have worked together on many district-wide projects. I would only send 3 if you think each one will show something different about you.</p>
