Recommendations recommending what?

<p>What consists of a good recommendation?
Also, how many teachers should one get LORs from, especially as I have no counsellor?
Also wondering, how do teachers send them? Do you ask them every time you apply to a college- about 8 to 10 times in a year?</p>

<p>Hey i have no clue how to answer your questions, as i have the same ones myself, but i just wanted to say that i LOVE Sushmita (the Bollywood actress) XD</p>

<p>If you’re using the common application, you can invite your teachers by email, and they can fill out the rec online, so you don’t have to physically send 8-10 letters. You generally get 2 teachers of 2 different subjects, but I imagine you’ll need 3 or perhaps the principal, or who ever is in charge of transcripts to write your GC rec.</p>

<p>Generally, teachers will talk about what kind of student you are, if you seem engaged, funny, hard-working, smart, etc.</p>
