which schools accept TA letters???

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
what about grad student teachers. you think schools will have a problem if the letter is CO-SIGNED by a dept. head?

Also, one of my recs is coming from a post-doc I had for a biology pre-req. She is a Dr, so do you think schools will actually check to see if she is listed on "the faculty"?

The letter should be fine. I used one from a professor of the same standing.
My other letter was from my professor AND TA, co-signed by both.

To the OP, I'd suggest you have the TA get it signed by the professor.
