do they have to be from a science professor that you took a science class with? or can it be a science professor that you did research for....
jackieMD2007 said:Yes. Otherwise how else is this person supposed to say things about your academic aptitude? On some secondaries some schools want you to SAY what class you had with the prof and what grade you got. I have only had one that way, but still.
I am pretty clear that an academic rec needs to be from the sciences, in a class where you had a letter grade.
