Would I be annoying my LOR writers?

[creepypasta13]

So my writers were able to write me LORs for a grad program that had a deadline on 12/1. Last week, I submitted applications to about 6 programs, most of which had deadlines in mid-December. I sent them each 2 emails to tell them when the deadlines were. So far, I've told them I plan on applying to physics and applied math programs. But that's in large part because I didn't take the math subject GRE. But I found one pure math dept that told me I'll still be competitive without it, but their deadline is in just 9 days from now. They haven't submitted the LORs for those other programs yet (I checked the online status for each school) Even though they've all written LORs for me before, if I asked them to write a letter for this program, will they get annoyed?

Probably, but they might do it anyway if they like you enough. The quality may not be totally awesome though. Also, some applications have grace periods for the recommendation letters, so you may want to check if this is one of them.

well I don't expect to get the best LORs from my profs. Probably just slightly above average at best.

Don't worry about your Profs getting annoyed. I think it is more important to get the LORs from them before the deadline. If they have written good LORs for you in the past, then they are likely to give good ones this time too.
