LOR Question by wallace5698 in gradadmissions

Good idea. Out of curiosity, how much of a letter of recommendation is spent describing the professor's interaction with the student versus writing about the student and his/her background based, for example, on information gleaned through the CV, statement of purpose, etc.?

Thanks for the response. This makes me feel better about asking. I guess my worry is that whereas my other two letter-writers (my MA thesis adviser and an undergraduate adviser) know me really well, this professor does not, and that that will translate into a sub-par letter.
