Which teachers should I ask for Letters of Recommendation?

Applying to College

I plan to major in Biology. I have already asked my Authentic Science Research teacher of 10th, 11th, and 12th grade and my Math teacher of 11th grade. Should I ask my grade 12 AP Literature, AP Biology, or Honors Physics teacher? Is it important to have a recommendation from an English teacher?

I think as a general rule of thumb, three teacher recs is overkill. Also, it depends on where you’re applying - ex. MIT requires one humanities teacher rec so the applicant seems well-rounded. If your schools don’t specify, just choose who knows you the best and will write the best rec for you.
