Here is an example of a recommendation letter written by my professor in Pharmacology addressed to the chevening scholarship committee. Please comment upon the quality and the structure of the letter:
I write this reference letter in accord with the request being appealed by Anwar. As a professor of Pharmacology, I have known Anwar for three years in the college of medicine. Anwar as writer of prose poems was convincing enough to be recommended to chevening scholarship. He has given me a copy of his published poetry book in 2016: The movement of Nothingness. The latter formulates a true story of an individual with very articulate persona who deserves to be reposed.
He has an intellectual acumen presented through the assignments he worked on. For instance, the seminars he introduced contained ideas always taken from the philosophical realm that were deeply enriching the presentations. This was affected by his passions in philosophy which he seeks to study in UK. Another aspect of his personality is that his understanding of new situations imposed as stressors in college life. For example, being consistent amateur athlete has helped him to mitigate the new quizzes taken every lecture at pharmacology department where he achieved very good results.
The networking skills have been exhibited through his active listening to the professors of the pharmacology lab when he meticulously conducts his practical assignment. While being actively engaged to the lectures through participating in discussions is the very essence of leadership skill.
In summary, I highly recommend Anwar to pursue his study in philosophy through chevening scholarship for his being intellectually and emotionally mature individual.
