How does the ETS PPI relate to the letter of recommendation?
The ETS PPI and the letter of recommendation have important but distinct roles to play in an applicant’s graduate admissions process. Unlike a letter of recommendation, the ETS PPI Evaluation Report provides standardized information based on your responses to a common set of structured questions about six key personal attributes. The ETS PPI Evaluation Report can incorporate ratings from a number of evaluators rather than just one, adding to the reliability of the report.
