Tip of the Week
1. Get your recommendations ASAP, some of your professors may be on a sabbatical or leave and youŽll have to re-contact them, all of it requires time. The best time to start is in April. 2. "Big names" (famous folks in your field who happened to teach you) always help, but they should be lecturers that really know you, not people who taught you in one of those 400 student classes. 3. DonŽt be embarrased to go and ask for recommendations. They may be "big names", but if you go to people who really know you, theyŽll be happy to help. 4. Keep copies of all recommendations. You might be able to use them in your job search, PhD application and so on.
