hello all,
i was told by one of my professors to draft my letter and that they would edit it and sign it.
I wrote a strong letter ( imo) and used the word "strongly recommend" in my letter
however, when i saw the edited letter, the professor took out the word strongly and just wrote "recommend".
should i still use this letter? i was pretty upset about it but can understand why he would ( i missed several classes due to illness but still did well overall). i wrote personal anecdotes as well in the LOR that made me look intellectually curious and professional.
your clarification would be appreciated. i will have 7 LORs total and expect the rest to be good/very good.;
Thank you
