<p>Hey guys, so my essay is about 4000 characters but I think it’s really good. Do you think Pitt wouldn’t like it because they want 7000 characters? Like would they think I didn’t try or something? I did try by the way.</p>
<p>My son call Pitt and asked the same question. The person he spoke to said that Pitt is trying something new this year. The 140 character replies are “tweets” and the essay is to see if students can actually write. My son provided detail examples and his essay went from 4,000 characters to 6,700.</p>
