<p>I applied to Wharton, but my recs were from my English and Chemistry teachers. I saw on the Penn website that they encourage recs by teachers related to the subject of interest, but neither chem nor english are economics-related...
Is this something I should be concerned about?</p>
<p>English is good, but Chemistry is kind of out there.</p>
<p>It’s Wharton though, so I’d be more worried about that. EXTREMELY competitive.
If you don’t get in, it won’t be because of your recs.</p>
<p>Well, I chose chemistry because most of my “Distinctions” were chemistry-related. But anyway, thanks for your input. You’re probably right - the recs won’t decide it.</p>
