Alright, thank you, that helped me a lot 
I first intended to choose an article, but realized a metaphorical story on the same subject would be way more interesting to analyze.
Cheers !</p>
<p>
I would choose the one where I’ve written the most about what I learned as a result of this conflict (Write an essay … that led you to new insights about yourself and/or other people.)
I think they’re mainly looking for that :)</p>
<p>Submitted >.< All my essays were 100 or less words from the word limit 
Waiting for March now</p>
<p>I’ve decided I would write 500-600word essays except for the #2, because I’m much less inspired about the other topics a.a</p>
<p>Okay so I finished my last essay at 12:30 this morning. I still have to type them up since they’re all on paper. I think one of them is over 1500 words, but I hope I’m just tricking myself. Otherwise, it will be an afternoon of cutting stuff out.</p>
<p>Still have to write #3. My essays are mostly on the short side (1 and 4 clock in at around 700, and 2 is around 1200, IIRC), but I cbf to try any harder.</p>
<p>kinda tweakin…all of mine are super short, like around 700. do you guys think that’s like a big problem?? did they want super long essays?</p>
<p>Probably not as long as you make all of your points well…
Still not finished (barely started) with 1 >.< nine hours left.</p>
<p>On the bright side, we basically have our college essays done hahah.</p>
<p>I’m confused why people are stressing about essay lengths or judging quality based on quantity. It shouldn’t matter whether your essay is 1500 or 500 words, as long as you answer the question.</p>
<p>eeeee ik ik you’re right, it was just concerning me when people were lamenting about theirs being too short when they were longer than mine!!</p>
<p>p.s. i’m really far behind too, haven’t even started 2 or 5, and none of mine really seem college essay material…oy this coulda been just a big waste of time</p>
<p>Do indents work or should I put a blank line between paragraphs?</p>
<p>Around 7 hours left guys. I’ve finished with them all…just revising atm. </p>
<p>That pile of essays should be me, but instead I’m sending my essays in to represent someone who I don’t even recognize, someone who is nowhere near unique enough. It’s infuriating and is fueling my apathy</p>
<p>^^they ask for a blank line.</p>
<p>I’m finished all of my essays, the last one at 12:45 this morning. Time to type them. I’m really, really hoping that my #3 is not over the limit; it’s looking a little lengthy, but I do have tons of scribbles on my paper so I have hope.</p>
<p>@coachella</p>
<p>I haven’t really looked at the submit-y page yet, but is it supposed to be blank line AND indent? Or do the indents not work, like somestudent was asking?</p>
<p>^Indents, italics, and special characters don’t work.</p>
<p>*<strong><em>. I had blank line + indent on my word doc, then erased the extra line because extra lines *</em></strong> me off. Damnit.</p>
<p>I haven’t even started my #3 essay. FUUUUUDDDGGGEE!! 5 and a half hours left!</p>
<p>No, eight and a half. It’s due at midnight pacific time.</p>
<p>Is anyone on the east coast planning on submitting between the hours of 12 and 3 AM? Because that’s a possibility, right?</p>
