My professor just sent me the letter of recommendation he wrote for me (he sent it out a month ago). Didn't know that he was allowed to do that. I opened it up and read through it quickly. I was happy to find out that it was a pretty strong LOR; HOWEVER, it has a lot of small grammar, stylistic, and punctuation errors (around 5 or 6 blatant errors in a one page LOR). I'm wondering whether or not to send this letter out because I don't know how it will look.
The content is good but will adcom interpret it as the letter writer didn't spend that much time on it to fix the errors?
I do have other letters but I don't know if they are as strong as this one. He is a science professor from a foreign country so he probably got a lot of help writing the letter in the first place since English isn't his primary language. What should I do?
