Too many Letters of Recommendation?

Applying to College
1

<p>I was wondering how many recs are too many?</p>

<p>Right now, I have one from:
My Spanish teacher
My physics teacher
My guidance counselor (standard for our school)
My music teacher (known him for 12 years)</p>

<p>I was wondering whether or not I should ask my school's president to write me a letter. I had a meeting with him earlier this year and he offered. Not many students in my school get to meet with him at all, and he offered to write me one after just a single meeting.</p>

<p>Should i get a 5th? or should i swap the president's letter with my music teacher? or just leave it as it is?</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>I think the 4 you have is good You have the counselor rec, the 2 required teacher recs, and one additional one (who obviously knows you well). Unless you have had a lot of personal contact with the school president and he can say add some additional insight that the other recs won't cover, I would leave that one out.</p>
