<p>The word limit is 500 words, but mine is 760. I've narrowed it down from 1200 and i just can't cut out any more. I've heard that 500 words is about 2 pages double spaced. Mine doesn't look much longer; it's 2 pages, size 12 Times double spaced. Do they do a word count and do you think they'd care a lot?</p>

<p>Is there anyone who wants to help me cut my essay? I'll PM you.</p>
