I didn’t mean for the post to be racist in any way. Just posting what I’ve heard from others.

I still have 2 years before I graduate (1 year b4 apping for grad school). So far I can only think of one prof who I know will write me a letter because I do research with him. Next summer I’ll probably have an internship/REU so I can probably get another one from the supervisor. What about additional LORs? How do you appeal to a professor if you’re not doing research or any projects with them, but only taking a class or two with them?
