<p>For the short answer that says to briefly elaborate on EC's, is it supposed to be narrative, or just strictly description.</p>
<p>I tried to write it in the format of some of my experiences at my summer internship and what I learned from it, but no matter how I cut it, it seems to come out over 1000 characters.</p>
<p>Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>Think of the EC essay as a mini-personal statement essay. So, don’t write it in a straightforward manner (I was an intern . . . I learned this and that . . . I am now more prepared . . .). Even though you have a character limit (which I know is VERY difficult to work with) try to SHOW how it changed or affected you, and avoid TELLING.</p>
<p>If you’d like, you can send it to me when you’re done and I’ll take a look!</p>
<p>Best regards,
<p>Description, but its possible to turn it into a narrative as well.</p>
