For V tech the personal statements are no more than 250 words. I sent my paper application yesterday ( I’m part of a CPP participant which is why I had to paper app.)My essays though are all little bit over 250 like 265ish and one of them is 290. I wrote 3 essays got it proof read and fixed it a lot of times making it good as possible for all 3 of them. And when the V tech representative of admission came to our school to give presentation he said it doesn’t really matter that much(word count) since we don’t count every word. Is this true?
