How long should the essays be?

<p>im writing the first essay and think i have said all i need to say, using 1000 characters. what worries me is that the essay page specifies a 3000 character limit. are you "supposed" to write close to that amount, or does it not matter.</p>

<p>I think you're ok with the 1000 character essay....as long as you feel you've gotten your points across, the length doesn't matter so much. Good luck.</p>

<p>Yeah, length isn't a big deal. I don't remember mine being exceptionally long and I'm here at the lovely CGA right now.</p>

<p>Ha ha soccer don't go cynical on us...:D</p>

<p>Not a chance boss ;). I'm just implying that the CGA is beautiful, which it really is! During the summer I never really got a chance to check it out, but it is a nice place.</p>

<p>OK I wasn't sure...it really is pretty especially if you don't have to run the hills! How is soccer going?</p>

<p>Soccer is awesome boss, I love it. You should check out a game if you're here for Parents Weekend. Did Jamzmom really send Charlie a bunch of candy???</p>

<p>I will definitely go to the game parents weekend. And yes JM sent a bunch of candy to Charlie Co where my son is! She's the best!</p>

<p>Another essay question - my son is about ready to submit his 3 required essays. The 4th one - essentially "is there anything else you want to say?" he intends to leave blank since he doesn't know of anything else that's important. Is there a strong reason to respond to this one? He left it blank for his AIM app as well and was accepted. I assume it might be for explaining some particular circumstance or to add something that has come up since he submitted his online form??</p>

<p>I would leave it blank...shouldn't be a problem. I don't think my son filled it out.</p>

<p>I didn't fill that one out, and I got in just fine. Definitley not a problem.</p>

<p>Soccer do you mind stating your credentials, not to get off topic too much...</p>
