<p>my essay is 750 words long… and the app is only taking 620 words… what should i do? print it out and mail it? or just try and keep on taking out words</p>
<p>I wouldn’t try and cut out that large of a portion of your essay word by word. Try and find the least relevant passage (or have some one really really smaht read it for you and tell you what it is). If they think it’s all necessary then mail it, I guess</p>
<p>thanx for response</p>
<p>First, see what parts (sentences, phrases) are irrelevant and take those out. Use the fewest words possible, don’t use passive voice. Then go through word by word to see what you can change. eg, “It all started” can be changed to “It began”.</p>
<p>EDIT: Just remember, I don’t think you can send some online and mail other parts of the application. If you do that, it might end up hurting you or delay processing.</p>
<p>hmm well i didnt send in the part 1 yet… however I told my GC that im doin it online and gave them teh forms… does that afffect if i can send it online or not?</p>
<p>I’m not sure… I think you can do whatever you want. I put down that I was going to mail my application on my forms for the GC but decided to go with online.</p>
<p>why ask a question with such an obvious answer?</p>
<p>what is the obvious answer?</p>
<p>guidance sent out my counselor rec/resume…if i do mail it out, can i just mail out these forms?</p>
<p>condense it, sillybuns</p>
