[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really you can’t think of any strength? Wondering if you are rigid and inflexible. [/quote] Some students lack self awareness and ask me to write letters despite not doing much work, being tardy, etc. I didn’t say I couldn’t think of any strength, I said I couldn’t best speak to their strengths. If my subject isn’t their strength then no I can’t write a good letter. I am not rigid or inflexible in fact I write 30 letters a year. But I don’t lie, and if all I can say is that you are polite then no you shouldn’t want me to write it. Also on the Common App you have to compare students to their peers. So me saying no is to benefit that student. [/quote]
