One thing we do need to keep in mind is how busy your references are. And we are asking them a favor to support our career aspiration, which may or may not be any added benefit to them. Carefully choose the person(s) who will write your evaluation, and help them as much as you can. If nothing else, it will avoid silly mistakes such as addressing a letter to school B when in fact it was supposed to be to school A. That's one of the most common mistakes and it won't reflect well on your application. |
