Post by radical~ »

Who should I choose to write my letter? A teacher or a counselor? What would look better?

i personally think a guidence counsler...because a teacher has his/her individual beliefs, while a counsler hears everything from all sides...plus counslers have a chance to see your pvt. folders...

I'd go with a teacher who knows you well. You had an academic experience in their class. Plus, you should DEF. get more than one recc, so get one from both!

Have a teacher write it (most likely the class you do your best in) and your guidence counseler as well.
<span style=\'font-family:Times\'Something told the wild geese

It was tine to go

Through the fields lay golden

Something wispered- "SNOW"

Leaves were green and stirring

Berries,luster-glossed

But beneath the warm feathers

Something cautioned- "FROST"

All the sagging orchards

Steamed With amber spice

But each wild breast stiffened

At rembered ice

Something told the wild geese

It was time to fly-

Summer sun was on their wings

Winter in their cry
