For my extended essay, the length is about 700-750 or so words (around 1.5 pages single-spaced). Do you think that is too long and I should cut it or will I be fine?
The help column on the Common App says this:
“Are there word limits?
There are no strict word limits. We suggest that for the first essay (where you choose one of the seven prompts), the extended essay stay around 650 words. While we won’t as a rule stop reading after 650 words, we cannot promise that an overly wordy essay will hold our attention for as long as you’d hoped it would.”
