I plan on going to graduate school and I know that most schools will require 3 LORs. I’m currently involved with research, so the professor in charge of the lab I work at will definitely be a LOR source. The other 2 is what I’m not sure on how to get really good ones. They will come from professors within my field who have taught/TEACHING me classes, but how do you go about acquiring really good LORs from these professors? What should you talk with them about? Also, do you ever get to read what professors say about you on an LOR? Thanks, advice would be greatly appreciated.
