So...I have 2 evaluations...most schools don't require them and i don't know what the evaluation asks. I'm confident that the people would say good but accurate stuff about me...meaning that it might not be 100% across the board (whatever that would mean)...so should i send them anyway...send the 1 i'm most confident in and leave the other...send none?
what would you do? did you send evaluations?
I'm applying to 10 of the T14 btw if that matters at all.

There is a link where you can either see the questions they're going to ask or questions like the ones they ask on the evaluation form. You might as well send them.

Honestly, can they hurt you? It is a good way to supplement the original letter, and is a good resource to use when it comes to admissions.

I don't really know if it could hurt me to be honest, i wouldn't think so. not in the least, but i mean you never KNOW for sure...I'm kind of paranoid i guess.

I understand the questions that you may have. When i first saw them i figured why not?, as it is a new service and included with the fees. I would caution you to make sure your recommenders can access the site. A couple of mine have had a tough time gaining access as the system is not perfect yet.
