Hi guys! I’m applying to Ivies and T10s, and I was planning to get my rec letters from my junior year AP biology teacher and my sophomore year AP us history teacher. My sophomore teacher had written me a glowing recommendation for a scholarship in the past, and I think her rec would really benefit my application.
However, I’ve been told it looks bad to have a recommendation letter from a sophomore year teacher. I could ask for one from my junior year AP English teacher instead, but I struggled to build a relationship with her due to COVID/virtual school, and I’m not sure how well she can speak to my personality.
TLDR: should I go with a stronger rec from a sophomore year teacher or a more average rec from a junior year teacher? My other rec would be from a junior year teacher either way.
Thank you in advance for any help!
