[quote=Anonymous]OP, I suggest you tell your DD to get herself together, especially if she’s ever given this particular teacher attitude. Even if you get the teacher from last year to give her a “good” recommendation, it’s likely the admissions committee will wonder why she didn’t get one from this year’s current teacher. But also teachers are colleagues so I imagine that they talk. For example, if DD is trying to get into a Mandarin program and she needs a recommendation from a Mandarin 4 but she gets one from Mandarin 3. The Mandarin 3 teacher might ask the Mandarin 4 teacher how your child is doing in a harder level class and base the recommendation off of that. Overall, this is a learning lessson from you. Teach your DD the art of relationship building. [/quote]
