<p>"Tell us about yourself in such a way that we will have a good sense of who you are." I need to send this off tomorrow. It's 307 words long ( it's supposed to be about 250). I'm not concerned about the word limits. Can anyone please give it a look? </p>
<p>Mine was exactly 251 words and my AP teacher thought it was one of the best college application essays she ever read. Did not matter though, I got deferred even with an 800 Writing. Just send it in the way you want. Don't agonize over it. It is all a crapshot anyway.</p>
