<p>For the responses that are supposed to be 100 words or fewer, does it hurt to have responses that are ~110 or ~115 words?</p>
<p>Yes. Because the limit is 100 words and the system should cut you off.</p>
<p>^MITChris, if I see the entire 115 word essay in my preview, can I assume the system hasn’t cut me off? I’ve already submitted my app, and the preview is fine, but the word-limit IS over by a few in some essays.</p>
