UC Essays question

<p>The website says that my shorter essay should be about 250 words long. Is it necessary to have a "shorter" essay? Or is it fine to evenly split the word count (each being about 500 words)? Suggestions please?
Thanks!</p>

<p>I believe it says each essay should be 250 minimum. However, I don’t advise going as extreme as a 750-250 split. I did 600-400, but you can do 500-500 if you want.</p>
