<p>I've read many posts about rec letters and i know it has a big effect on chances of admission. So, i would like to know what is considered "amazing" or good to top colleges. Suppose the teacher writes something along the line of "Top student in class", is that good enough? Or does it have to be "best student in my career" or something of that sort??</p>
<p>this student got a hundred on all my tests and is going to be the next nobel prize winner</p>
<p>the best student in my career gig stopped working after the 10th time the teacher said it</p>
<p>that's pretty good</p>
<p>no one's gonna write that for me..haha...what else do they consider great?</p>
<p>Seriously, just give it to a teacher who likes you and that you've done well in their class.</p>
