uh hi hi hi there uh Zenith welcome
0:04
you're very fast with your question uh
0:07
zenth asks sir Professor is not giving
0:09
me recommendation letter what should I
0:12
do I most certainly wouldn't know much
0:15
about that Amon what do you think about
0:17
this
0:19
one
0:21
um are you a high school student or an
0:24
undergraduate
0:26
student I think either way you have more
0:29
than one te teacher
0:31
so um if one is not willing to give you
0:35
a recommendation letter you can ask
0:38
other teachers potentially I don't know
0:40
your situation exactly but I feel like
0:44
there are many professors who would be
0:47
willing to give you a recommendation
0:48
letter if they know
0:50
you um they're they're in high
0:53
school yeah even in high school you have
0:56
teachers of different subjects and I'm
0:59
not sure if you want a recommendation
1:01
letter from a teacher from a specific
1:04
subject all right um if not I guess
1:08
you'll uh just have to I don't think
1:13
they that any University really requires
1:16
you to get a recommendation letter
1:18
especially at high school level from a
1:20
specific
1:21
teacher so you can potentially ask
1:25
others
1:27
teachers uh that are in your high school
1:29
to give you a recommendation
1:32
letters how I mean ideally people or
1:36
teachers who are who know you well who
1:38
know your true level uh because those
1:41
who can are the ones who can attest to
1:45
your abilities your skills uh and what
1:50
you can really offer as a student so I
1:54
would go for those um so again I don't
1:58
know the specific situation here in your
2:01
high school so maybe if you can shed a
2:05
light
2:06
on uh what the situation is but I feel
2:09
like uh you can
2:12
just uh depend on one teacher for a
2:16
recommendation letter yeah also like if
2:19
it was for I know let's say you're
2:22
you're undergraduate and you are asking
2:24
for uh recommendation later for later
2:26
for um Masters then maybe sub might be
2:30
more important but for high school like
2:32
I think most schools would be more
2:35
interested rather than how good you're
2:36
at one specific topic one specific
2:39
subject they would be more interested in
2:41
how well a student you are how
2:43
hardworking disciplined etc etc so I
2:46
think like a more personal touch with
2:48
recommendation Le might be better in
2:50
that scenario I'm in last uh School uh
2:55
I'm in I am in last school of high last
2:57
year of high school I'll be applying for
2:59
Kings s scholarship for Bachelors next
3:01
year there was there was mentioned that
3:03
you should have recommendation later
3:05
it's a scholarship in
3:07
KSA um
3:11
yeah it's pretty much the same I would
3:14
say like even especially if if it's for
3:17
scholarship um like they would be way
3:20
more interested uh in learning about
3:23
you I guess as a high school student as
3:26
a student as a prospective student uh
3:28
more than like how well you did on
3:31
specific let's say on physics in high
3:33
school um last year of high school it's
3:36
completely fine um Aman do you want to
3:38
add anything about this uh additional
3:43
information um I think what I said just
3:46
applies even uh after the additional
3:53
information okay uh
