<p>I totally know what you mean about keeping admissions on your side–I thought about that too. I just don’t know why they would even have the upload option otherwise (but maybe I’m too out of touch with tech stuff and there’s a real reason). I sort of interpreted the options to be a guideline for someone who was going to write three sentences per response, but also give more long-winded applicants a chance to ramble a little more. I think if the responses are under 2000 characters, there shouldn’t be an issue… I can’t imagine an admissions member refusing to read a response a little longer than half a page. I want to ask my friend how long hers were for ED, but she was deferred, so I’m a little hesitant to do that…accepted EDers, help!</p>
