<p>Is it advised to focus more on the academic interest aspect than the reasons to apply to Brown aspect?</p>
<p>i had more of a 50/50 breakdown</p>
<p>I think you(and I :p ) should write about your acadeic interests and the connection you see between them and Brown.</p>
<p>Mine focuses mostly on academics (why Brown's attract me), but I have other stuff as well. 75/25, about.</p>
<p>how long have you written this why Brown essay? mine is almost 250 words, but someone told me I should write more.</p>
<p>500 words, i made it right to the point</p>
<p>500 word for the why brown essay??????? omg!!!!! are you sure you're not talking about the other/main essay?</p>
<p>My essay is about 340 words long, but I'm not done revising.</p>
<p>im pretty sure the character limit on the online app suggests that it should be less than 500 words.....maybe even about half of that but i don't remember</p>
<p>Minefor that one is between 200 and 250... I would think they'd be annoyed if there's any more than that. On the paper app, the lines are less than half the page...</p>
<p>yeah Addicted...that's what I thought too. mine is also about 250 words.</p>
<p>I have a kid who goes to Brown and she typed the Why Brown essay and then glued it onto the paper application to fit the space provided. It was about 365 words. Key point....it fit the space provided.

<p>I think it's supposed to be about 250. I have a 75 academics/25 brown split, but in discussing academics I'm inherently discussing why brown too. :p</p>
