<p>Though the essay is only one page, do I risk losing the reader’s’ attention or worse because of the word length (670)?</p>
<p>Thanks for the help.</p>
<p>I think the parameters might have been different last year (they might have said 300-500, I don’t remember), but mine was 378 (I just checked). My college counselor said keep it short.</p>
<p>I can send it to you if you want.</p>
<p>Walton12, really, it depends. Have someone else read it for you and see if anything is superfluous. If you can’t cut it down, and if your other one is within the word limit it’s fine. Good luck :)</p>
<p>extra words don’t make the readers lose attention… its extra words that shouldn’t be in the essay / a boring essay that lose the reader’s attention…</p>
<p>cut stuff u don’t need</p>
