<p>Instead of my school counelor for my class knowing me best, the councelor at the school that knows me best is for the year of students below me. </p>
<p>I have issues dealing with the sophomore guidence councolor at my school due to personal issues so I've been speaking with the freshman one. When I go to get recomendation from my guidence councelor should I get it from my actual guidence councelor or the one that actually knows me, and well, that I can stand? </p>
<p>To quickly sum it up, must I have a recomendation from my grade level GC, or since there is another that knows me better can I just get a rec from him?</p>
<p>You what I would do?(I’m a bit of a personal person that loves to talk instead of email I always call if I can)</p>
<p>I would call whoever does your interviews and two tips of advice. All my interviewers loved hearing me compare them to a mother that sees me at my best and worst socially.
Also, I described how my current advisor is missing that… Motherly aspect.</p>
<p>I mean maybe all of your advisors are not female… Mine have been(except for 8th grade) and maybe they have a better understanding on the whole social aspect of your life.</p>
<p>If you call and explain it I am sure that a school may cut you some slack. Unless you have bad reasons…</p>
<p>I don’t really have great reasons. It’s just personality conflicts. I’ve had issues more than the average student at my school, home life and dealing with it, so I’ve started seeing the school councelors for a bit of help here and there, and because of that I’ve gotten closer to the freshman councelor versus the sophomore one, for obvious reasons. </p>
<p>I was just thinking getting the one from the one that knows me better, good and bad, versus the one that I have issues with and knows little to nothing about me. I just wasn’t sure if that would be encouraged or even allowed.</p>
<p>I don’t see how the schools you’re applying to would even know that the counselor who writes your rec is the one assigned to you or not. Even if they did, it seems natural to me that they would WANT a rec from the person who knows you better.</p>
