[讨论]推荐信，你是怎么做的？

jeff2003

开始准备推荐信了。推荐人提出填写太费劲了，尽管我给他发了如何用ACROBAT的帖子，但使用起来仍是极不方便。我有个想法：把这些东东拷贝到WORD里，基本上使用原来的格式，再填写内容，大家以为如何？而且，ACROBAT里的字体太小，打印出来后没法看。用word全解决了。
你还有什么更好的办法吗？

1, print them all.

2, give this paper-based letters to him/her.

3, let him/her write by hand.

4, you type them again and print them again.

5, let your recommender sign them.

of course, if you waive the right to know the content, I mean really waive, it is hard.

I think online recommendation maybe easy and timesaving.
You can draft a recommendation in softcopy for the recommender.  What he do is filling the form online and copy-paste.

Thanks!
But if he submit recommendation letter online, how can he sign his name for letter? He need not do so?

if he submit the letter online, there's no need for him to sign the letter.
While a question here: It is better to choose waive right or not? is that matters?

jeff2003

I thought "waive" is better. If you choose to review the letter, adm might feel that you could pick out some favourable letters.

很多学校的recommendation letter都是问问题的，如果对每个问题的回答过于准确是不是会使得学校认为是自己帮助回答的问题？一般是不是大多都是写一封letter而不是去meet those questions?

那些问问题的RECOMMENDATION LETTER是否可以自己先打出来,然后请老师签个字就OK了!
我觉得老师不会给写那么多的!

听说有些朋友确实是这样做得。
