Ok, I’ve finished my UC application a while ago and had to write only 500 word essays. Piece of cake. Stanford’s word limit, however, is around 1400-1500 words for the short ones! And rougly 2400 for the long one!

To the people that applied/are applying, how long are your essays? Does Stanford expect us to reach the word limit?
