word count

<p>hey, can people that finish their essays give me like an estimation of how long their short essays and long essay are?</p>

<p>min are both around 500 words. -is the supp one supposed to be closer to 250</p>

<p>wait so your shorts.. are 500 words? or is that your long?</p>

<p>you mean teh short answer as in teh why are you a match for this school, what was most important factor, etc..?</p>

<p>I think those are about a paragraph</p>

<p>oo thanks!</p>

<p>but i'm asking abut the long essay. some people have said 1 1/2 pages to 2, but i wasn't sure if they meant double spaced or single spaced.</p>

<p>Mine is a few lines past 2 pgs double spaced. I dont think it matters as long as you dont go overly long or short. (615 words)</p>

<p>not sure about the long but for the short ones, i ended up doing a few sentences for the what influenced you to apply one, and then a longer, 400+ word essay for the second one.</p>

<p>anybody find the "what influenced you the most in your decision..." and the "why do you think you CMC might be a good match for you" questions very similar?</p>
