I had a conversation with one of my D’s teacher’s (a personal acquaintance) at our public and she led me to believe that the school may coordinate the writing of strong recommendations for its strongest candidates. She wasn’t explicit but I got the impression it might work like this: “candidate x has very high gpa and standardized test scores, strong ECs and has a great chance for admission to a top school. Please make sure you write a very strong recommendation.”

I’m going to ask a close friend at another public if that goes on where he teaches.
