Problem with LOR from Dean
Posted: Tue Dec 07, 2010 12:44 pm
I have a LOR from the Dean of my college at my University. The problem is that it was a very generic LOR and doesn't emphasize me at all. What's worse is it is almost a word-for-word copy of a LOR he gave me to get me my job in corporate consulting a year ago. With minor alterations to indicate law instead of consulting.
Should I throw this away and use the 2 LOR I have from otehr people, 1 from a prof I did research with and the other from my current employer?
I hate throwing away a LOR from a dean - especially when we we did a number of things together like study abroad and he clearly cares about helping me get into law school....but I'm afraid such a generic LOR will ding me in applications for next cycle when I apply.
