Is 2 weeks enough?

I’ve been swamped with schoolwork and haven’t started on any supplements yet. I’m planning on completing all during this Christmas break so I’ll only have 2 weeks. I’m getting a little anxious. And I still need to modify my 500 word essay to fit the commonapp :open_mouth:

Is this enough time?

Depends on how many schools you are applying to and how many supplements they have. Get that Common App essay done & polished ASAP… then see what you can do with supplements. You definitely risk some sloppy applications with only two weeks left, so I would start hustling now.

Also, 500 words is solid. You don’t need to expand it to a 650. Keep it at 500 if it conveys what you need it to. Don’t stretch it by adding unnecessary stuff.

@proudterrier I sent you a PM with my essay a while back, you haven’t replied yet. Can you please check it out?

Just as a note for anyone who may be reading, if you send your essay to someone unsolicited, they are perfectly within their rights to ignore it. I don’t have time to extensively edit essays anymore and yet still get PMs from people I’ve never talked to asking me to read theirs. (Not saying that’s what post #2 meant, but as an FYI for people who want their essays read.)

Half an hour is enough if it’s put to good use.
