Hmm… I only sent in 1, and managed to get in e school rodman scholar, lol. I almost didn’t even send in that one, long story.

But I think when I visited they said 5 was pretty much the most you should send in, with 3 being good. So if you do 3 teachers, your scoutmaster, and your GC then thats 5, but I think you’ll be safe because your GC rec is separate; that is, the GC rec is required (iirc) so I don’t think they are concerned with it when they talk about sending in rec’s.

I would send them all, you’ll be fine, just don’t send in any more.

I have a friend who sent 11 (yes, eleven) recommendations to MIT and got in, lol
