<p>For the supplement essay i know the word limit is 500, but right now my essay is 560 words. I've edited it through numerous times, and I really feel if I cut out more words then the content and meaning will be gone. Does anyone know if being 60 words over will influence my app very poorly? Ultimately, the essay is only a page single spaced so I feel like it would be okay but I'm unsure. thanks for any input.</p>
<p>don’t worry. submit iit as is, they won’t penalize you. good luck</p>
<p>painterchica, that will be fine. As long as you think you’ve edited it down enough, you will be good to go.</p>
