<p>Quick Question.
How long do you think the 'short answer' for Emory should be?
Are they looking for like a paragraph (as it is called a short answer and most other supplements short answer means 500 words) or are they looking for a short essay (or a long essay lol)??</p>
<p>The length shouldn't matter too much as long as you answer the topic question without rambling too much. Go through your essay to make sure there aren't unnecessary or off-topic sentences. As long as it's about 2 pages or under (double spaced) you should be fine. Mine was about a page and a half (a little bit less).</p>
