How are Supplemental Essays supposed to be?

<p>...? How long are you making your's?</p>

<p>It really depends on the school, however, I don't think they should be longer than your personal essay. thjey should be more concise and answer the question asked. Anything else you want to say should be contained in the additional information section.</p>

<p>For the JHU essays there are no official word limits or word count suggestions. The first essay ("money in your pocket") is traditionally between 750 - 1000 words when written. Remember you can present this essay in any format, using any medium, you want. The second academic essay ("favorite class") is typically shorter and runs between 250-500 words. But as with the first essay, it is your choice how long / how short you want your essays to be.</p>
