I asked a professor for a letter of recommendation, and she said she will cosign a letter written by a TA. In this case, do I need to add professor's name on AADSAS or TA's name? Is it considered a LOR written by a professor?

and one more question, one of my professors who will write a LOR asked me which schools i had interviews with (i'm waitlisted), and said it will help her writing a letter. Is it okay to let them know which schools i got interviews with? Should I tell her not to mention it in her letter?

Please help~~~Thanks in advance

Ok so here is what I think of your Qs:
Your professor is just being lazy by not writing your letter, basically she wants her TA to come up with a letter and she just sings there. I'd ask other professor to write you a letter. If that's not possible, make sure you put down both their names in AADSAS. Ask your professor if you should put her name down on your form as the writer of the LOR.

For the second Q: No a letter of rec is not written for a specific school, the main idea behind a LOR is for the schools to know how good of a student you are based on your instructors evaluation of you.
