How many Letters of Rec should I send. I have six 1 from biology, 1 from chemistry, 1 from English, 2 from Research, 1 from piano teacher.

I will be sending all 6 in one packet.
Is this too much.?????

It does add up to six:

1 from bio, 1 from chem, 1 from English, 2 from research, 1 from piano.
 
You have plenty of letters. Schools will specify what they want.

Oops! Sorry, my bad! 😳 😳 😳 I thought the OP meant 6 bio letters, which would have been a bit much. Six total letters is definitely, though, I would say, at the top end of what one should send out. I think the most any school asks for is 4, and many schools specifically say to limit additional letters. Schools will say what they want, the most common being 2 science and 1 non-science (profs who have taught you).
