<p>I could have sworn that Swarthmore required one English-y subject teacher and one math-y subject teacher recommendation. I can't find anything about it now. Anyone know?
My best recs are coming from a science teacher and a math teacher, so I'd rather not submit the English teacher one if I don't have to.</p>
<p>I don't believe they had any requirement like that when I applied, though you should probably double-check with admissions just to be sure.</p>
<p>I think any 2 academic teachers are fine. The good thing about English-y teachers is that they usually can write well.</p>
<p>UChicago has those requirements. Maybe you have the two confused.</p>
<p>Well, my recs (last year) were from English and French, definitely nothing science-y there, and they had no problem with it...so I imagine the inverse would also be true. I also don't believe I've ever seen that written in the Swat website or literature, but it has been a year since I've been looking at them.</p>
<p>No, it's any academic subject teacher. My recs were from a Gov and a French teacher, so no requirements for a Math and an English.</p>
<p>Okay, that's excellent. Thanks for the help!</p>
