Hi, I just had a simple question about the stanford app. on it, it says you can submit an optional recommendation letter. this summer, i did biochemistry research with a professor at University of Texas. however, this professor is not very fluent in English. My problem is, should i get a recommendation from him (he is a Ph.D.) or from my best friend who is a damn good writer. thanks for any help :P.
