I am applying for grad school, and have 5 professors that are enthused to write a letter of recommendation in support of my application. I have a close relationship with all of them, but they can each account for a different strength. I also have a 6th general LOR from a leadership program that I had attended. Should I send all 6 if the school does not specify, or should I pick and choose 3 professors per school, which is usually the minimum? I’ve read that it’s bad to inundate the admissions committee with LORs since they’re reading hundreds. But one person on the admissions committee (of a school that i am not applying) said the more the better. Please help! I really want to get into grad school!!

Thanks! =)
