(It's common knowledge that such requests should be made as early as possible, but 12th grade teachers don't know their current students yet; but, could they write recomendationd for those applications which are due by Jan. 1? If so, when typically they do it?) |

One teacher will write one recommendation for you, then make copies and that same recommendation will get sent to all 5, 8, 10, howevermany schools you need. College admissions offices have no expectation that the recommendation will be written only for that one school. Each teacher writes one recommendation and copies of that get sent everywhere necessary.
