For those schools that only require 1 science letter of recommendation, which of these letters would be preferable:
1: Major university biochem professor, research, publications all that jazz, dozens of years experience. However, the class was 350 people and it most likely isn't very personal (I was top 10 in the class though).
2: Local community college anatomy professor (Phd), only a few years experience, but who knows me well and likely wrote a much more personal letter. (Class size was about 20).
Which should I choose? I'm leaning towards the community college professor, but I'd appreciate some input! Or should I send both?
Thanks!
