<p>I'm almost done with my Pitt application, and just need to finish the last essay question. Just wondering, how long should it be? I saw one post that said it should be 7,000 characters but I can't find it on the Pitt website that it requires 7,000 characters</p>
<p>Bump … really guys I just needed to get a bearing as to how long that third short answer question should be</p>
<p>7,000 or less characters, a good length to get point across, but doesn’t have to be a minimum length I think.</p>
<p>The 7,000 characters are not a requirement. Whatever it takes to appropriately answer the question is what you should aim for! </p>
