[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this is a gift. I'd give your brag sheet + some anecdotes to a trusted friend who writes well and have them write it, so it's not in your DC's voice. Then, you can make edits if needed.[/quote] I see nothing wrong with a teacher asking for info from the student. My son's physics teacher asked him for some bullet point items that my son wanted included including info on outside activities and interests that the teacher could weave into the narrative for an early decision application. Though we never saw the actual recommendation, my son was accepted ED to his top choice and we are sure the teacher's recommendation absolutely helped. [/quote]
