How many LoRs?
Posted: Sun Oct 10, 2010 4:12 pm
I have four solid letters of recommendation, from professors in three different departments. Although I obviously can't read them, I suspect that they each add something positive and unique to my application. If a school will let me submit all four, should I?
For example, Harvard "recommends" two letters, but will accept up to four. Will I annoy the admissions officers or otherwise hurt my chances if I send all four in? What's the conventional wisdom on this?
