<p>This may sound like a silly question, but I’m going to ask it anyways. </p>

<p>For the Brown application, they require the PART 1 section to submitted before going to the essay section. I haven’t received my scores from December tests yet , so I want to wait till i get those scores so i can put them on my application before i turn it in. </p>

<p>However, this leaves me clueless about what the essay question is. I can’t seem to find it anywhere, can anyone tell me what the essay part of the application consists of?</p>

<p>It's an open topic.</p>

<p>For some reason nobody realizes that people ask the same questions over and over on this forum. This is what the search function is useful for.</p>

<p>Funny, I am actually in the EXACT same situation as the OP--but with a different question.</p>

<p>Can someone tell me the character limits to all of the essays on Part 2?
Obviously I know the questions, I would just REALLY appreciate if ANYONE could tell me the limits. (Specifically the Why essay)</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I'm under the impression that the questions haven't changed in decades, so this is what last year's was:</p>

<p>Question #1:
Tell us about the academic areas which interest you most and your reasons for applying to Brown. 1500 character limit
Question #2:
Who interested you in Brown (e.g., college counselor, Brown alumnus/a, admission officer, undergraduate, relative)? 500 character limit</p>

<p>Question #3:
In reading your application, we want to get to know you as well as we can. We ask that you use this opportunity to tell us something more about yourself that would help us toward a sense of who you are, how you think, and what issues and ideas interest you most.</p>

<p>If your essay is over 5000 characters, please upload your essay as an attachment using the option below.</p>

<p>Note: Thanks to the upload function, there is essentially no character limit for the 3rd essay. Mine was a good 898 words/5,520 characters.</p>

<p>Great. Thank you so much! Definitely takes the guess work out of writing these.</p>

<p>I really needed to know this too, thanks for the information!</p>

<p>Does Part II appear after Part I is submitted? If so, how much longer after? Thanks!!</p>

<p>question 3: look out for the question on the pdf. it says try to keep it to 500 words.</p>

<p>Sorry if this question can be found on the website (I'm still looking)</p>
