Asking professor for recommendations:

<p>I'm thinking about asking one of my professors for recommendations but since my school is on a quarter system, I haven't talked to him since October (our class ended early-classes usually end around Thanksgiving). Would this be an issue? I feel like it's been too long since he's taught me.
Also, how far in advance from the due date should I ask a professor for recommendations?</p>

<p>I think how well the prof knows you is more important than how long it's been since you had his class. As far as when to ask, ASAP, as you don't know what their schedule looks like.</p>

<p>thanks for the response!</p>
