I asked an admissions rep that came to my school today, and he said that people usually write one or two words. Some people write a sentence; a paragraph would probably be overkill. It is up to your interpretation.

I think the commonapp restricts your response to 150 characters (correct me if I’m wrong) so I think what he was trying to say is that you should use the space given wisely.
