<p>I am afraid that my essay is too long. It reads as a story and probably would not take someone 5 min to read and understand.</p>
<p>500 words is recommended, but I think 600 is fine. No longer, though.</p>
<p>600 is the cap, really. Between 500-600 is acceptable and even preferable, particularly if you’re doing a narrative.</p>
<p>680??? :(</p>
<p>It’s hard to know, princess. You can try, but it’s a big risk. Although if you feel that an all-or-nothing risk could help you, you could certainly try that.</p>
