Clerkship letters of recommendation massive snaffu
Posted: Mon May 10, 2010 11:47 pm
So, I screwed up when I was getting letters of recommendation for clerkships. I oversubscribed--I have five professors writing.
I am at a complete loss on how I should handle this diplomatically. Essentially, I jumped the gun and asked two professors I had early in my law school career, before we had the information sessions on clerkships with OCS and so on. These professors are fine, but I don't really know them that well--I just did well in the classes I had with them. I want to replace them with two professors I had later on, who I did well with, but also interacted with much more frequently.
Ugh. Any advice, aside from /killself?
