<p>On the Short Takes, Yale's instructions are 150 characters (roughly 25 words) or less. Do they cut off based on number of characters or number of words? I have one short take that has 27 words but 148 characters. I have another one that is 20 words but 160 characters. Any help is appreciated.</p>
<p>I believe 150 characters is the maximum. Before submitting your application, you should always preview it using the pdf option to see if any words have been cut off.</p>
