A recommendation letter is a valuable part of an application anywhere because the people who accepts you knows nothing about your skills and abilities, and only such a paper may inform them about you as a personality, your strong and weak sides, your abilities, intentions and even ambitions. People around us may usually use this paper in a different way. When the third party writes a letter about you as a person, they add their personal convictions regarding you. It helps the members of the committee to have a clearer vision of you as a person.
