two questions. one easy and one hard.

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application
1

<p>is it bad to use the common app for every school i apply to that accepts it. my friend is saying that schools will think that im lazy and i will have less of a chance of making it. my two biggest reaches right now are probably binghamton and stonybrook both suny schools.</p>

<p>also how many teacher recs do i need and is it bad to pick my religion-honors teacher for a recommendation.</p>

<p>Your friend is an idiot. If they use the Common Application, they want you to use it.</p>

<p>You need as many teacher recs as the school requires. Check their website. They usually want academic teachers (main subjects: math, English, foreign language, etc)</p>
