Number of Recs?

<p>How many recs should we be trying to get? It seems like only 2 teachers, math/science and english but some people have been getting more it seems just in case. One example I heard is that a school asked for an additional rec from someone not already submitted once they got an interview, I don't know if it was for a program or extra scholarship or not though. Thanks for the help.</p>

<p>I know BU's program requires three teacher recs (on top of the ones for UG admission) and they have to be from a english, history/foregin lang, and lab sci teacher. But that's the only prog I've seen like that; most only require the two</p>

<p>do you think its ok to get a rec from my American history teacher? (getting other one from physics teacher)</p>

<p>why not....what's the prob</p>

<p>i'm just puttin in 4....chem, math, english, spanish...all 4 are equally good, so im puttin all of em in and let the college choose what it wants to read</p>

<p>i thought it would be better to get recs from science and math teachers. thanks for the response.</p>

<p><em>shrugs</em> honestly doesn't matter as much as you think</p>

<p>I submitted letters from my Physics teacher, my world history/AP Govt., and English teacher and got into the BU 7-year program this past spring.</p>
