Please answer the following questions in a detailed manner (responses should be subject
specific- eg. if asking for an LOR from a Math teacher, your narrative should deal with only
the experiences in Math classes)

1. What was your favourite topic covered in the class? Why did you like it? Did it in any
way influence your choice of major?

2. Please remind me about a specific conversation or interaction we shared that provides

insight into how your mind works, your willingness to participate in class, or your
enthusiasm for helping others.

3. How well do you respond to feedback?

4. What was a memorable assignment you completed in class? Why was it meaningful to
you? Were you able to apply any of the knowledge gained to real-life situations or
projects?

5. Briefly list your interests or hobbies outside the classroom that relate to the specific
class/subject matter. (Ex Internship, summer course, a CCA that adds value such as
Entrepreneurship Club, Mock UN, Mock Trial, etc)

6. A few words on your extended essay experience - if it is in this subject.

7. How would you describe yourself as a student in my class?

8. Below is a list of attributes/core values that colleges consider when evaluating your
application.

Select 1 or 2 of these attributes and share an example of a time you demonstrated these
characteristics in class.

Academic achievement, intellectual promise, quality of writing, creative and

original thought, productive class discussion, the respect accorded by
faculty/peers, disciplined work habits, maturity, motivation, leadership, integrity,
reaction to setbacks, concern for others, self-confidence, initiative, and
independence.

9. Please tell me anything else that you think would be important for me to mention in my
letter.

* To be emailed to the teacher writing the LOR & cc’ed to me.

* A minimum of two weeks is required as advance notice to teachers to write your

LORs.

The brag sheet should therefore reach your teacher/s well in advance of the 2
week requirement.
