<p>would it be a good idea if i were to send a letter of rec. from a Brown alum? Because my college advisor happens to be friends with Preston Tisdale, a brown undergrad alum (class of '70 something) n harvard law grad… would it be a good idea or would it be too late?</p>
<p>a rec from friend of your college advisor probably wouldn't help at all</p>
<p>Do you know the guy? Or is just somebody random your ollege counselor knows? If he actually knows you well, then go for it. If not, it's a waste of his (and Brown's) time.</p>
