is 1000 words too long for a common app essay?

<p>im doing the topic of your choice...and its 1000 words..but all the words are meaningful towards my point :/</p>

<p>Well, from what I’ve seen, 500-750 is the norm, but if you think it’s ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, then I wouldn’t worry about it.
I would go through and make sure that they’re all meaningful and that it flows/has no superfluous/tangential info, however.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
