<p>Hi guys...for the "tell us about your summers" question, are we supposed to write and essay on that or just a list with brief descriptions...also what's the word count limit for that one?....</p>
<p>Thanks a lot....</p>
<p>You may write either an essay or brief descriptions- its upto you because nothing has been specified. I've written brief descriptions though.</p>
<p>There is no precise word limit, only a char limit (if ur doing the online app)</p>
<p>i believe limit is aprox. 150 words</p>
<p>I agree with spacepirate--there's no "official" limit. Just write what you think you need to, and as long as that's somewhere between, say, 20 words and 500 words (maybe 400), it should be fine.</p>
<p>It's a character limit. My essay ended up being ~ 220</p>
<p>ya for the PDF version for paper/print version of app, there is only enough room for about 150-200 words</p>
<p>I treated mine as an essay and it's 213 words.</p>
<p>thanks for the replys..I'm still a little bit confused..do I need to tell them ALL of the activities I did in summer or just focus on one or two...cuz mine end up like a list with one-line descriptions...</p>
<p>that should be ok... </p>
<p>but do make haste if you are applying early!</p>
