<p>it says on common app online that the maximum number of charactesr you can have in the essay is 1800, otherwise they will be truncated.</p>
<p>but when i preview it i can see all of my essay with lots of space still left, desipte the fact that my essay has like 2300 characters!?</p>
<p>does this mean i can submit my essay (im intending to submit online) or do i need to shorten it?</p>
