Supplement Essay - How long!?

<p>So I'm in the process of writing the supplement. I've been working pretty consistently on it over the last 2 weeks, and I'm worried that it is about 900 words. </p>

<p>Harvard doesn't give you any guideline whatsoever for the essay length, but I still feel that 900 may be too long... thoughts?</p>
