definately NOT a few pages! It says “take a moment”. Keep it simple don’t pad or BS. I don’t know how many kids apply to IIT but I can tell you that many ad-coms want to get a true sense of you in as few words as possible. Be clear and unique but be brief.

ie no Miss America world peace and ending world hunger stuff unless you have a clear plan as to how you would do that. It’s a good question, don’t blow it off but as Polonius would say “brevity is the soul of wit”
