Is 232 words okay for one of the shorter ones? Or does it HAVE to be under 200 words? And since this one is 232, does the other short essay have to be around 170 words? Thanks!
The essays individual word counts do not affect each other, but 32 words above might be a little much. Try to find a couple dangling words here and there or eliminate a sentence. It does not specifically have to be under 200 words though. I would say 10-15 words for the short ones and 30-45 words for the long one is acceptable.
