What if teacher recommendation is not submitted on time?

<p>Okay, so most of my schools require two teacher recommendations and I asked 3 teachers for recommendations already. However, one of them has not started yet and the deadline is jan 1, but I want that teacher's rec more than one of my other ones. So should I put all three recommendations just in case? Or Just the two that I want most. Will it look bad if I add all 3 teacher recs but one of them ends up not submitting it?</p>

<p>Schools usually have a week or two week grace period after the deadline for things like school forms that aren’t directly under your control.</p>
