Hi guys,
I asked a professor to write me a rec around January 15th and told him the deadline for a program I am applying to is February 10th or so. He said he would have no problem with it, and would do it ASAP, but the letter still isn't in. Other professors whom I asked later than him have already submitted the letters, and I was wondering, what would be a polite way to check up on the letter or make sure he was doing it? An email, and if so, what should I say? I just don't want to seem like a pest because he IS doing me a favor, but I need that letter. Any advice would be awesome.
