LSAT Instructor as a Recommender?? Forum

I already have 4 recommendations (obviously, I'm not sending all of those recs in), but I was just wondering if maybe I should get an additional recommendation from my LSAT course instructor?

I graduated over 3 years ago. I have 2 recommendations from professors and I have 2 from employers/work experience type recommendations. Considering that I have not been in a class setting in a while and that I think my instructor would be able to write a stellar recommendation, would an LSAT instructor be a good source for a recommendation? Kind of just for a backup in case I get on any waitlists or anything? Opinions anyone?

Use max 3 for initial apps. Then use the 4th for WLs or Holds. A 5th will not help and may be considered overkill, especially from someone who isn't a professor or employer.

This sounds like a stupid idea to me.

Thanks. I'll refrain from it then. Figured I'd ask just in case anyone knew of anything else that I didn't.

Just no. LSAT classes aren't generally what I would call academic environments.

Should I ask my LSAT instructor for an additional recommendation?
