![]() ![]() ![]() So DH is wondering if there is anyone here who has experience with writing recommendations for UCAS or someone who deals with university admissions in the UK. S/he deals with his/her own culture badly enough - dealing with another culture would surely be disastrous. Although the student took a class with DH he can't remember him/her that well personally because s/he attended so few sessions - but s/he was notably antisocial during those few lessons. ![]() This student is surly and uncooperative with staff AND fellow students, does not appear to like people at all, does the bare minimum of work, and once physically attacked a professor. However, now a student who has acquired a rather negative reputation has asked him to write a recommendation. In most cases writing a recommendation that is both honest and positive is quite easy - generally it is only the more able and confident students who are interested in going abroad. If the student wants to go to a British university the recommendation would go via UCAS. One of the duties he has ended up taking on is writing academic recommendations for students who want to do a semester or year at another university in a different country, using the ERASMUS programme for example - this recommendation then becomes part of their application. I'm keeping all the details deliberately vague to avoid the risk of any parties here being identified. DH teaches at a small university in mainland Europe. ![]()
