commonapp shortanswer Question

<p>Im using commonapp, and the p'ton supplement asks me to write two short answers. Since I already write a shortanswer on the commonapp, there'll be 3 short answers p'ton will see? Im a little bit confused by it. Should I repeat the commonapp shortanswer in one of the two shortanswers in p'ton supplement, or should I write a different one (so that there'll be 3 different short answers)?
Thx!</p>

<p>3 different essays.</p>

<p>thx very much!</p>

<p>the common app short answer doesn't count as one of the short answers on the supplement. You can still write about the activity on the common app if you want, but their has to be three total. Perhaps elaborate in the 250-word.</p>

<p>just to clarify.. what do you guys mean by 3 different essay?</p>

<p>here is what i thought i have to write..</p>

<p>Academic Honors Essay (short answer)
Activity Essay (short answer)
Common App personal statement(long essay)</p>

<p>(if engineering) BSE degree (short answer)
Summer activity(short answer)
Pton Supp. "More About You" / Choose Two Topics (other two more short answers)</p>

<p>is that total 6 or 7(engineer) different essay???
(yes i think it's way too many essays to write -0-)</p>

<p>i meant 3 different essays as in:</p>

<p>pton application - choose 3 out of 5 prompts
pton supplement/common app - 1 common app essay and 2 pton essays</p>

<p>I wasn't talking about the numerous optional ones... I didn't even know there was an activity or academic honors essay that you were talking about.</p>

<p>ithought they're all required, not optional. Common app has one formal long essay and two SHORT essay. i believe.</p>

<p>Common app has only 1 short essay.
Im all talking about non-optional short answers. So can I repeat the commonapp short answer in one of the two p'ton supplement short answers?</p>
