What should a peer/alum rec say?

<p>Basically all in the title. My first choice school allows for Peer recommendations, and it just so happens I'm friends with an alum of said school. Except neither of us are quite sure what a peer recommendation or even an alumni recommendation would look like. What should be put on it, or rather, what exactly should be said? Should she focus on the hobbies she and I share, the talents she knows of, the extra-curriculars she knows I do? Should she explain why she thinks I'd be a great ____ student? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Anyone? :)</p>

<p>Oooh, I hate to be the one who bumps there own thread constantly…but I need this one answered. </p>

<p>If it helps, said Alum is not fresh out of college, and has previously been an English teacher. [So I often ask her for help with take-home essays. IE: Is my comma in the right place…?]</p>
