<p>For all of those Lawrenceville applicants out there.......</p>
<p>How long (word count) was your supplement form formal essay??</p>
<p>I'm talking about this one...</p>
<p>"Ask and Answer a question that reveals something interesting about you."</p>
<p>My son is still working on it -- He has trashed a couple so far, not satisfied with his "question."</p>
<p>I don't think length matters as much as content. If they wanted a minimum number of words they would specify</p>
<p>oh man that one took me forever. wasn't it due like on the 15th? But, it took me 4 tries to think of a topic. Not to be all negative though, sorry if it sounds that way, it gets easier. I think mine was 475-525 words. It was kind of lengthy. 300+ should be good</p>
<p>it says not to go over a page on the supplement, so if your essay doesn't go over a page, your fine.</p>
