LOR time table question

[dagreat1]

I asked one of my professors to write a recommendation for me, she was quite willing to do so, but asked for a hard deadline to get it sent in. I just asked her yesterday, what would an appropriate deadline be, I'm trying to get my applications in by mid-late october.

I would suggest somewhere in the middle of Sept - like Sept. 15th maybe? That way, she has a month to work on it and if she sends it off to LSAC by the 15th, you'll have a month for it to get processed which should be ample time.
