<p>I am applying to 5 schools, 4 of them on the Gateway to Prep Schools system and Choate. I waited to begin asking for recommendations until now because one of the teachers I intended on asking was on maternity leave, and I was wondering how I could get recommendations in for all of the schools without asking my teachers to fill out more than one or two forms?</p>
<p>I don’t understand the rationale to delay giving the forms to the teachers who were not having a baby. Just give the teachers all the rec forms ASAP and let them figure out their most efficient way to handle it. You are not doing them any favors by delaying.</p>
