As some of you may know, I’ve been homeschooled all along but I’ve taken my lab science courses and some of my math courses at a CC. By the time I apply to college (this fall), I’ll have several professors who know me well and would be delighted to write recs for me. The only problem is that these folks are ALL science teachers. Aside from the fact that one or two of the colleges I’m considering request that you submit recs from teachers of different subject areas, I’m a little concerned that even having one rec from a science prof and one from a math prof (not that I know any of the math folks super-well) will present an unbalanced view of me in the sense that colleges may not receive an objective point of view of me from someone in the humanities/social sciences. While science is my passion, it isn’t my life. I teach a Shakespeare class. I’m writing a book (trying, at least). I sing in a choir. I’ve done volunteer work with Russian orphans and at the library. In other words, I’m academically/socially multifaceted, but I don’t have any “outside” teacher/professor to back up these qualities.
I’m a little anxious about this, so I’d appreciate your suggestions on recs. Feel free to ask further questions for clarification.
