<p>would it be okay to make my essay "evaluate a significant experience...and its impact on you" be about one of my activities? like how i got involved in it, everything i've gained etc. i've got too much to say about it to limit it to 150 words. or is the essay supposed to be totally different?</p>
<p>Although it is fine to discuss an EC in your long essay, you generally should choose different topics for your longer essay and your short essay so that you don’t overlap the information you are providing. Your goal is for the adcoms to get to know as much about you as possible. You will probably want to choose a different EC for the topic of your shorter essay.</p>
