Many schools require LORS from at least 2 science and 1 non-science professors.

I saw that the non science professor who is the head of the music dep. wrote only 16kb when I checked it on Interfolio whereas my science professors wrote more than 35 kb's.

My question is my violin teacher wrote me a LOR also who taught me for 4 years in which I was her best student. She was considered a music faculty although she didn't give lessons in a class. Most lessons are private and the students give semester recitals. I know she wrote a really great LOR because she told me.

do you think her letter will carry more weight than this professor (the head of music dep) who really didn't seem to want to write me one even though I was in his class and 2 independent courses and did very well in his class?

is she considered a "non-science" professor?

I kind of want to ask him if he would consider the letter he wrote for me to be on the strong side. i don't know..

advice please.~
