<p>Okay so in microsoft word my essays for UCs had a total of 1011 words, but then when i copied and pasted them into the application boxes and pressed their word count button, my essays had a total of 1029 words....... did this happen to anyone else??</p>
<p>No, but that's kind of weird. Just go through and re-read your essays to figure out what happened/make sure they're what you want them to be.</p>
<p>It's weird because the same thing happened to me! My word processor said my first essay was at 523 and when I plugged it in, the UC box thing said it was at 530.. Did you use hyphenated words? I think that might have been why.</p>
