Applying to College Common and Coalition Application

<p>"In the space provided below, please elaborate on one of your activities (extracurricular, personal activities, or work experience)(150 words or fewer)."</p>

<p>When I pasted in my 200 character response, it didn't character limit me. Does that mean I don't have to cut it down?</p>

<p>Maybe it’s a test to see if you can follow directions.</p>

It’s all a test. There is no real college admissions department, it’s just a part of a college’s psychology department. They observe you and manipulate you.</p>

<p>As for being serious, if they let you put 200 characters, it probably isn’t that big of a deal, though I’d try to keep it within 150.</p>

<p>There’s a 1000 character limit or something.</p>

<p>If they are asking for 150 words or fewer, don’t break the rules for no reason.</p>
