Too late to ask for a recommendation? I need your advice!!

Applying to College

<p>So I have 2 recommendations already from my AP bio teacher and AP english teacher from last year, but I was wondering if I should ask my 12th grade AP french teacher for a recommendation. It's kind of short notice--about a month before applications are due, but I think her recommendation could be better than my bio teacher's. Is that too short a time period for her to write one? Should I ask her? If she does write one for me, that would be two humanities recommendations (although I do want to go into the humanities)--is that alright?</p>

<p>Tell me your thoughts.</p>

<p>Teachers at my school generally request at least 10 school days notice before writing a rec. A month should be more than enough time, though it’s courtesy to make sure she has the time.</p>

<p>Some schools will ask for a humanities rec and a math/science rec; others allow two academic teachers. Check the requirements for your particular schools. Personally, also being a humanities person, I sent a French and an English rec.</p>
