How many essays do I need to do? help!

<p>ok..if you do the common application and supplement for Rice, you end up doing the Rice essay and the common app essays. If you do the Rice application, you only do the Rice essay, right? Why does Rice only have one essay for their application? I've already started their application; should I do the common application and submit those essays? I'm confused.</p>

<p>Rice's own application has one essay and two short answers. If you are confused just down load Rice Part I and Part II application and submit them. Part I is very simple 30 mins. tops.</p>
