<p>optional letter of rec okay for BU? I have a phenomenal letter of rec from my journalism advisor. I know certain schools like NYU just toss the extra letter. thanks all</p>
<p>but why do you want an extra rec if you already got phenomenal one?</p>
<p>but i am sending two recs anyway because my history teacher wanted to write me a rec but i already have a really great letter my english teacher. so i will have an extra rec. i am thinking since my history teacher wanted to write it, it should be strong. so no harm... i hope.</p>
<p>no, my "phenomenal" rec IS the optional one. journalism is not an academic course. i have another from my ap lit teacher.</p>
<p>ah. got it.</p>
