  1. Thank you, fuzzy, for replying! This has helped me realize that I was worrying too much about secondary factors. I will go with the professors who I feel know me best, and who could best talk about my research abilities.
  2. Thanks for sharing your experience! It really helps put things in context. I am in a similar situation to yours - one is a full professor, the second is an assistant professor, and the third one is unclear (in the sense that I could go either way, depending on how my situation unfolds over the next 6-ish months). The full professor is quite well-known in specific topic X in subfield Y, and the assistant professor went to grad school at one of the places I am applying to.
  3. I have a question for those of you who might be more familiar with the procedure. Is there a strong bias towards LORs from tenured professors, when it comes to the admissions committee reviewing applications? I have been considering, all along, asking the professors who know me best to write my LORs, but after browsing some threads on this forum (admittedly, not from the Linguistics section) I wonder if I should, for my 2nd and/or 3rd letters, ask instead more senior professors in my department.
