Ivy Reference letters

Applying to College
1

<p>on ivy league university websites, most don’t say that you need to find two teachers who teach different tyupes of subjects (i.e. no two science teachers) for references.</p>

<p>however, there are a lot of people at my school who think that this is necessary. Is it? Or can I find two science teachesr for references who know me well and if I do, will this affect my chances (i.e. it will look like cherrypicking)?</p>

<p>"Yale does not specify that the recommendations come from teachers of particular subjects. It is a good idea, however, to have the two letters come from teachers of different subjects. "</p>
