targeted letter of rec Forum

[thebigspoon]

so i have two profs i'm gonna ask for LORs. Both of them got grad degrees from UC Berkeley so i guess Cal kinda counts as their alma mater? Since most targeted LORs go to the recommendation writer's alma mater and Boalt is my top choice, would it be a waste to have them write the targeted LORs for Boalt rather than say Stanford? Stanford is definitely more of a reach but they do love their targeted LORs and Boalt should care less, right? I already feel like i'm pushing it asking them to write 2 LORs so i'm not comfortable asking them to write 3. anyone have any opinions? thanks in advance!
