Recommendation Letter from Retired professor

Post by Margaret99 » Sat Apr 02, 2016 3:49 pm

I am B.Sc. Chemistry graduate. I have had wonderful professors in grad school but they are all academic/research oriented. My teachers do not see the qualities and skills I possess in terms of a good "law" student. Also, some of them are not very fluent in English.

However, I have had a professor who was my class teacher and taught us communication skills for 2 years. She has a Masters in English and knows me as a good student. However, she retired last year and I would like to know if her recommendation letter will be counted for the admission process :roll:
Your opinions and suggestions are highly appreciated.

Yes. Ask her to write you one.

All that matters is whether they can speak to your academic (specifically writing) abilities

Who they are personally or what they're currently doing is insignificant
