<p>Do we elaborate; I mean we have 300 characters?</p>
<p>What are you putting for them?</p>
<p>To be honest I wish I had to write that college essay, because I had a pretty good idea :L</p>
<p>If I were writing that I’d put a nice afternoon coffee: Twinkie, small, recycled please, caffeinated, sugar-free.</p>
<p>Then I’d write about how each affects me.</p>
<p>Be weird! It begs for that.</p>
<p>It says to respong in two lines or less.</p>
<p>bump please</p>
<p>When I applied last year I was told by an adcom to just write five words. That said, it doesnt have to be a list. You can come up witih a sentence or phrase as well. Be creative.</p>
<p>Yeah: basically, this section of the application, it might be best to look at the paper application, to see how much room you really have (two lines is different online than on paper).</p>
<p>But yes. Five words. (This is not really a make-or-break section of the application, as I was told last year. It’s just a way for adcoms to get inside your head a bit, make you a bit more real).</p>
