<p>Hey everyone!
I’m applying to Harvard Regualr decision, having been deferred by Princeton, and I was wondering if any of you EA applicants, sent in an extra recommendation letter. I was thinking of sending one from my music teacher so that they could see a really personal side of me. She definitely wrote about how I was one of the top few ever in her career. What do you guys think?</p>
<p>if that recommendation reveals a very different side of you, then by all means it shld be alright. extra recs that serves to confirm what the adcom already knows is not nescessary.</p>
<p>If your music teacher knows a different side of you than your other recommenders, I'd most definitely send it in. My app had a bunch of recs (2 teacher, 2 GC, 1 from the school board president). I'm not sure if they all helped, but I got in, and worst comes to worst, they just ignore them.</p>
