So I never spoke up in class or went to office hours because I am relatively shy. When I ask for a letter of rec I will undoubtedly try to give the writer some background info about myself, along with my resume and personal statement, but other than that none of my writers really know me. I doubt any of them remember me besides my PI. Does every single applicant get letters of rec from professors who they were best buds with, or is my situation normal?
