I strongly advise you not to get a college recommendation from someone that you have worked with over the summer. Unless the both of you have a close relationship and you feel that he has a better understanding of a certain part of your personality/character as compared to a staff member at your school, this is a very bad idea since selective colleges discount these sort of endorsements as they make it seem like you’re trying to take advantage of a educationally renowned professional to give you some sort of edge through connections. Think about it Mindy, EVERY student who attends Harvard SSP would then get accepted to Harvard through a letter or recommendation from the professor who taught the class during the summer when he/she was there, but this is obviously not the case.:rolleyes:</p>
