Do teachers give students who they don't really know letters of recommendation? I'm at a CC in Boston and haven't been here very long so its not like I got really close with my professors or anything. I have a few teachers in my mind that I had in the past where I got an A- or A but they don't know shit about me. I'm trying to transfer out after this semester and applying to BU, Tufts, Northeastern nothing super elite but I'm just nervous I wont be able to score at least one generic letter of recommendation. I'm literally required to have one academic letter of recommendation to even send in my app.
