Yes, you need three recommendations, but one of those comes from your guidance counselor - so only two academic teachers. That applies for all schools really…

And I don’t know where you got the impression that you need two science teachers. I’m sure you could do that, but I always think that two different subject recommendations are ideal. I personally got a recommendation from my English and Physics teachers. I know that certain teachers you may have a better relationship with than others and will go to them for your recommendations, but whenever feasible I think a recommendation from one humanities teacher and one math/science teacher is preferable. That shows two very different sides of you.
