<p>what should i ask him to do? hold it off until dartmouth reminds me that its missing, and pretend that he did send it but it got lost? he says that way i won't be penalized for his screwup. is that a good idea?</p>
<p>No, just ask him to send it ASAP. Don't worry about it too much, but it's better to send it than wait even longer. And I can't imagine that you would be penalized for it, but just get it done now.</p>

<p>Except for the fact that a friend you trust with your college decision cannot even write one or two paragraphs about you in a timely fashion.</p>
<p>Chill out, don't worry about it wosa.</p>
<p>okay.</p>
<p>"We would appreciate a statement, on the reverse side of this form, based on your knowledge and observation of this candidate."</p>
<p>does this mean i have to make him handwrite his statement on the form? can he attach the statement on a separate piece of paper?</p>
<p>my friend typed it up and ran the form through the printer. make a couple copies of the form in case there are any printing problems.</p>
<p>i see.. is that what everyone does?</p>

<p>Not everyone. I made my friend write his for a more personal feel. And he has horrible handwriting.</p>
<p>It. Doesn't. Matter.</p>
<p>i see.... so my friend can just attach his statement on a separate sheet of paper?</p>
<p>I always wonder how you people think of admissions officers...</p>
<p>"Hey, here's an envelope with the peer evaluation form. But wait, there is nothing on the back. There are just these sheets with words separately. What do you expect me to do with this? I don't understand. REJECT!"</p>
