Little rant...

4 January 2020: I can’t be the only one who wishes graduate programs would cut it out with the list of specific, detailed questions they ask recommenders to answer in addition to uploading a letter. It’s such an imposition on recommenders who feel additional pressure to get that part right, too, on behalf of their students. So tempted to say “see attached letter” in every single box. (Also kicking around a proposed Newtonian sort of “Law of Letters of Recommendation”: for every letter submitted, a new request will enter your inbox in the next 24 hours…or in this case, 20 minutes.)
