<p>Sorry if this question has been asked many times before but with regards to the character limit on the extra curricular essay, is the 1000 character limit including spaces?</p>
<p>For example is "I like to read" 11 characters or 14 characters long?</p>
<p>It is 14 characters, but be wary of the limit, as it’s not completely accurate. Do a print preview, and check the PDF to make sure you essay didn’t get cut off, because the space is really dependent on the actual letters - w’s for instance are much wider than i’s</p>
<p>Thank you! I will certainly review the whole application carefully on print preview</p>
