Teacher Rec Question
Answered

Other than the written evaluation, do teachers rank your qualities in the teacher rec. Is there a chart where the teachers denote how much of certain quality you have compared to others ? I heard this and I’m not sure if it’s true or if it just is in some cases.

The questions asked in recommendation forms differ between schools. Some schools will require your teachers to rank your qualities on a scale of 1-10, while others will only have written evaluations. Regardless of the questions that a school asks recommenders, you can help your teachers write standout letters of recommendation by following the steps laid out by this CollegeVine blog post. Hope this helps!
