Colleges and Universities A-Z Cornell University

<p>I took OctSAT and the fact that I did my best really made me happy:)
GoodLuck to me and everyone who took the test.
Anyway. </p>

<p>My question is…</p>

<li>I have had really good relationships with my science teachers, so I was thinking of getting the recs. from two of them.</li>
</ol>

<p>But I have heard that it is best if one can get one rec. from English teacher, and the other one from math or science teacher. </p>

<p>------1 generic rec.from English&1 wonderful rec.from Bio
------2 wonderful recs. from Bio&Chem…</p>

<p>Which would look better?</p>

<p>P.S.
I’m applying to CAS.</p>

<p>I sent an e-mail to the admissions office a few weeks ago asking them almost the same exact thing. Cornell is one of those schools that don't require/prefer recommendations from teachers in certain subject areas so I think sending recs from 2 science teachers really wouldn't hurt your chances in any way. They did say that it would be best if you got recs from teachers in the subject that you're interested in studying at Cornell, but they also said that it is more important to get recs from teachers that know you well.</p>
