I'm currently going into my 4th year undergrad and I'm taking the LSAT this June. I just started reaching out to professors to get a confirmation that one is willing to write a letter of recommendation for my law school applications, but it is very difficult since my major is huge and all of the lectures have 200+ people. My grades are all in the A and A+ ranges. One of the professors I reached out to replied to me and said that she cannot write it since she does not know me first-hand, but she is okay with me reaching out to my TA to write about me, and then she will sign off on it but still explicitly state that she does not know me. In my opinion, I don't think that will be very helpful, but she says that method has been successfully used by other students in my position. I'm honestly just a little stressed and nervous and not sure what to do here. I'm still waiting for 2 other professors to reply to my emails. I honestly just need one academic letter since I plan on getting one from my boss at work. I'm applying to Ontario law schools only.

Hello, I would try to go and ask your professors in person if possible. Take your resume and go talk to one of them.
@AdamLaw The semester is now over and I won't be able to ask anyone in person until September :(
