Quick Supplement Question.....would appreciate advice

<p>So I am currently finishing up my "What's the relevance of an all female school?" supplement for ED, and I like my response a lot. The only issue is it's crazy long (over 400 words), when the Common App only allows for 150. I got the impression that if I sent my supp. separately they would still read it, but I'm not looking to inconvenience them. Assuming that essays are a real strength for me, should I cut it down to size or seperately send the long (but good) one? Thanks!

<p>if it’s supposed to be 150 words, you should cut it down to be 150 words, painful though it may be.</p>

<p>): That’s what I thought.</p>
