Why is she telling me? because we a doing everything together (including the applications) and the biggest problem is that she thinks that what she does is not bad enough to NOt tell me.

When I said “forged” scanning and placing the existing signature on an edited paper was exactly the only thing I meant. It’s still a forgery.

I dont know why were not the letters sent to schools directly, do all teachers do that? Mine did, I never even got to see the letters and now I have to worry how good/bad they were. I dont know.

I think she asked them to do the corrections several times, and now she was simply embarrassed to ask again because it was not good-enough for her. Not all teachers are necessarily good with writing amazing letters even if they try I guess. I dont want to stereotype but I think it was a teacher/coach, and my coaches were never good at academic writing :-)
