Hi everyone.
I was looking for some extra feedback on my current situation.
For schools that require a minimum of 3 letters, I'm planning on submitting 3 "very strong" letters. The problem is that I'm still waiting for one of these "very strong" letters to come in. I also have 2 "strong" letters available as of right now.
Question 1:
For the schools that require 3 letters MAXIMUM, I'm planning on submitting my 2 "very strong" letters right now, and adding in my 3rd "very strong" letter when it comes in. I'm just so convinced that this 3rd letters is going to be outstanding that I'm willing to wait a little longer as I've been following up with this professor regularly, but I'm really stressed out that he hasn't submitted it yet. Is it okay for me to waiting for him, and how much longer should I wait? Keep in mind that I also have 2 "strong" letters that are ready to go right now. I can easily submit 1 of these "strong" letters if the delay is starting to hurt my application, but I just don't know when this time would be. What do you think I should do?
Question 2:
For schools that require a MINIMUM of 3 letters, I'm planning on submitting my 2 "very strong" letters that I have available right now. Once I get that 3rd pending "very strong" letter in, I'll submit that as well. My question is: are these 3 "very strong" letters sufficient for schools that require a MINIMUM of 3 letters. Or should I go ahead and submit my full set of 5 letters? Another possibility is for me to submit 3 letters I have right now, just to be marked complete at these schools, and then submit that pending letter when it comes in. What do you think I should do?
