Actually, he’s saying he hasn’t written enough.

I don’t know what to tell you, I tend to be long winded, but I was easily able to write very long essays to cut in half (cut the fat, keep the juice) when i was applying. Everyone is different though. You don’t have to write something that meets the maximum number of characters, but if you absolutely cannot, perhaps you did not write about something you’re passionate about or something with a wide enough scope? You know whether what you read is good or not. If you’ve said what you feel you need to and you think this is as good as your writing gets than submit without worry.
