Hi guys, I currently have three teachers that I am interested in getting a letter of rec from (AP biology, Honors American Lit, and Chinese 4 H). Btw I am chinese. Most of the schools that I am looking at want 2 letters of rec from academic teachers. I feel that my Chinese 4H teacher and AP biology teacher would be able to write the best rec letter for me. However, in my Honors Lit class, I finished with an 89.6 which was not rounded to an A. However, my lit teacher mentioned that he would address this in my letter of rec. So which two teachers should I ultimately send as a letter of rec to colleges? Also, is it really important to send one humanity teacher and one math/science teacher as a letter of rec? I am interested to applying to schools like NYU Stern, University of Chicago, etc.
