Hi,
I have asked three of my teachers for recommendations so far. Two of them are math/science and the third one is humanities teacher. Which two should I assign for Princeton? I am generally highly focused on math and physics, but I’m worried whether including humanities teacher would present me as more ‘well-rounded’? Another factor is that the humanities teacher is from 10th grade (I basically don’t have any non-science teachers in 11th and 12th grade)
Any advice?
I would say Math + Science because those teachers would be more interested in writing a rec for you as you have studied under them for the last two years or more.
@Wolowizard normally you should do one STEM + one Humanities for a more well-rounded app. I do agree since your humanities is from sophomore year, you should apply with the 11th-12th grade teachers who can write more recent, more personalized LoRs.
Good luck,
Psy
