<p>i asked my AP chem teacher for the recommendation.(summer program :NYU,columbia,brown) And she told me to write a biography of myself to her so that she can write more i guess??? O_o
So,what should i put on my biography??? (should i also mention that i came to the us in 2.5 years ago from china?)</p>
<p>i think it’ll be helpful to include a resume-type thing with your list of activities, awards, classes taken, leadership etc. For a biography, you should talk about your background, what’s important to you, what your future plans are. She’s just trying to get to know you.</p>
<p>It’s threads like this that make me greatful that my teachers all know me fairly well. (With the exception of a few…that I’ll never need a rec. from. :))</p>
<p>^yea, my teacher told me to do that also. i basically talked about how I was passionate an stuff…stuff she could use on the rec. that would helpful :]</p>
<p>should i also mention my personal background???</p>
