<p>I'm applying for this scholarship thing which I have to send out today. You have to make a 2-3 minute speech video of yourself. My speech was like almost 5 minutes long but I cut it down to 3 minutes and 27 seconds. Do you think they'll count off? Please help! thanks!</p>
<p>Depends. I don't know how lenient they are, but chances are they won't penalize you for having those extra few seconds.</p>
<p>How quickly are you reading your speech?</p>
<p>I'm reading it as fast as I can, with people still being able to understand it.</p>
