Hello CCers,

I understand that you must have a good bond between the professor and preferably some work experience under the professor when asking for recommendation letters.

However, would it be a good idea to ask for any comments on your SOP while also asking them to write you a rec. letter?

I thought this way, the professor would know even more about you and therefore write a better rec. letter with ease.
