<p>I started by getting a rec from my English teacher. That was fine.
But then I realized that I'm applying to Engineering programs, and therefore I should probably get a math/science teacher.</p>
<p>So I asked my calc/physics teacher (its a combined course) to write me a rec.
Then I realized that even though I had gotten an A or an A+ on each test, the class is first thing in the morning, so I'm not the most engaged person in the class, although I do wake up about mid-way through the period</p>
<p>So in a long discussion with my college counseler, she recommended getting another rec
And I asked my theatrical design teacher to write me yet another rec, because he has had me twice in a class (albeit an art class) and I talk to and see him almost every day because I'm super involved in backstage theatre work.</p>
<p>The school I'm applying to ED only wants one rec, and I'm giving them three.</p>
<p>Is this going to really hurt my chances?</p>
