Is the "how'd ya spend yer summer" supplement question an essay?

<p>Plus, if you look at the space on the actual princeton app, they give you VERY little room for the summers question. I'm assuming they just want straight facts.</p>

<p>There's more than plenty of room. My summer essay was 2500 char, WITH indentation and spacing, and it only filled up 2/5 of the space they gave me.</p>

<p>Hah, then maybe I'm just trying to find a way to avoid writing another essay. I'm already in a crunch for time.</p>

<p>Yeah... I'm struggling with the same thing here...</p>

<p>Fortunately I've just finish both of the essays that I was missing.</p>

<p>One more check to my list!! yeaii...</p>

<p>I just told them straight up facts. I doubt they want to read another flowery, verbose essay lol.</p>

<p>matiseijas, I would totally restructure that sentence, if it isn't too late.
we don't think of understanding as "surprising." perhaps "Thus, it is not difficult to understand that..." or "Thus, it is not surprising that..." Furthermore, the adverb sounds awkward. I would omit it altogether.</p>

<p>Oh, excellent acadec. Thanks so much for your advise! I will definitely take it into account ;)</p>

<p>I think I wrote about two sentences, making a strictly factual list of activities, and I got in. I really wouldn't worry about it, whatever you choose to do.</p>

<p>About a paragraph of factual. On stanford's supplement (which i dropped) and some others, very short answers to certain questions had boxes with 1700 characters max or so. </p>

<p>I'd say it's not a full-fledged essay.</p>
