<p>I have a very good teacher recommendation from last year that reflects my ability in the classroom.
Should I send it in, or should I just go with this year recs?
.. and will it be frowned upon if there are freshman stuffs on it? (i'm a sophomore this year)
There is a date saying 2007 on it, so the admission officers would know that it is from last year.</p>
<p>They want recommendations from your current teachers.</p>
<p>howd u even get?</p>
<p>I think you can send it as an additional what but call the school you're applying to</p>
<p>I applied to some BS last year and I keep all of the docs.
Thank you all for replying. I figure it will be unnecessary.</p>
<p>they want current recommendations i believe</p>
<p>i mean howd u even get the recs?</p>
<p>Probably made copies.</p>
<p>That doesn't answer the question... the teachers are supposed to send it off to the school without letting the students see their evaluation of them, which is why it's strange to have your own recommendation form.</p>
<p>Alrite w.e, why the hell does it matter.</p>
<p>every time i hear that a teacher gave a copy or let the applicant see the recommendation, i say to myself, "how dumb are these teachers? it specifically said on the recommendation that it was confidential and must be returned to the school without the student seeing it. my teachers would never let me see it. i even gave a recommendation to my teacher that said that she could give it back to me and let me see it or send it in herself and she said "no, i'll send it. it's better if i send it in myself". she didn't even have to but she still sent it in herself. she even offered to pay the postage, and when i heard that, i gave her a recommendation that another teacher gave to me so she could send it in and i could save 40 cents</p>
<p>I live very far away from any of these schools, to say the least. The teachers give me back the reccomendations signed and sealed to send to the schools, because applying to four schools is costing me about $20 in postage. This is okay, right?</p>
<p>Yea, that's fine. Some recs even say to do that.</p>
<p>I didnt get to see the forms until last year admission process was over
i asked for the copies for my record, in case i have to use them in the future</p>
<p>I usually give the teachers envelops with stamp on it, so they can just mail the forms without paying</p>
