Don't get too hung up on the recs, girls.
This was the line that I was concerned about. I agree that your advice to relax, have a good time, make sure you are putting forth your best, etc is going to be very important.
But, if the first advice given to young women seeking rec info is not to get too worked up over recs, then this is not correct in some instances. Here at GC, we try not to make broad sweeping generalizations that might not apply to everyone in every situation.
If the OP is hearing that the info on the college pan website is not what she is hearing in real life, then she should pay attention and try to "follow the unwritten rules" of that campus.
I think justinterested said it best by pointing out that not having the correct number of recs is often the easiest way to cut down the list.
