Evaluators & Letters of Recommendation
Using the same person as a recommender and evaluator... Bad idea?

Re: Evaluators & Letters of Recommendation
Do you even need an evaluator? Most schools only require 2 letters of rec, which are more than sufficient.

Don't bother with evaluations. Adcomms don't care about them at all.

Re: Evaluators & Letters of Recommendation
Yea, unless the school requires them, evaluations aren't really worth the effort.
However, if you're getting one, ask someone besides a LoR-writer. If you find a professor who gave you an A, they'll most likely just circle 10s. Which is why they're not very useful.

They are useless - they can probably only hurt
