<p>One of my professors said that law schools generally don't care about how great your letter is -- only that it shows you are not crazy. Is this true?</p>
<p>Also, if your school only requires one letter, is it common practice to only send one? Do most people send more?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Law school is reputed -- not without reason -- to be mostly a number dominated process. However, in "in the zone" cases, LORs -- along with essays -- can matter quite a bit. An excellent LOR can push you over the top.</p>
<p>I believe most law schools require at least two letters, and many accept up to four. Requirements vary considerably from school-to-school, and most requirements are a range -- as in, at least two but no more than four. Or something like that.</p>
<p>It's not at all true, at least at the top LSs. They can matter a LOT.</p>
