[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you know if you got a strong recommendation letter?[/quote] Such a good question. My kid moved across country to a new school, then covid hit. Barely knew the teachers who wrote her recs. Very high stats and ECs, good essays of her own, but the letters of recommendation were likely meh at best. I'm sure it matters.[/quote] There is a little room in some of these applications to submit supplemental information and letters of reference. An example might be a student who did a lot of research outside of school might include a reference from the mentor. They do not encourage doing this unless there is a good reason. In this case, maybe get a reference letter from one of her teachers from the old school where they knew your student well as include it with an explanation of the situation.[/quote]
