Recs

<p>How many rec(s) does CMU require? Thanks</p>

<p>one, if im not mistaken, but u can get away with sending another one. so just send two and u'll be fine regadless</p>

<p>uh oh. how many is too many?</p>

<p>i sent two teacher recs, one couselor rec, and im thinking of sending another rec from my IB coordinator (which would be a really, really good one). is that overkill?</p>

<p>I think that I sent two teacher recs and the counselor rec, since my counselor didn't know me at all. However, one of mine got lost or got there really late, and I was still accepted.</p>

<p>If your teachers didn't know you well, or your IB coordinator has a very different relationship/view of you, send the fourth one. If you think it'll be repeating what has already been sent, but with a few more good adjectives, give the admissions committee a break so they don't have to read it.</p>
