Did anyone GET INTO UC Davis without filling in the optional section? Not interview, but get offered admission?

I got in, but only after writing all 6 essays with an average of 4000 characters each. It was a pain-in-the-arse

I was accepted in January (about a month after my interview), but I did the supplemental section. My answers weren't long, though--they ranged from 550 to 1700 characters, with most being around 900. Also, I only answered 5 of the 6 questions.

It really is optional.. And the 6000 character limit is just so that you aren't limited. Don't feel obligated to fill it out. In fact, the dean of admission did not even know it was 6000 characters and just said that he didn't want to limit the applicants' answers.

Good luck!!

i got in, and did all the optional questions, but didn't use up the allotted space. I guess the optional questions are really optional, but I didn’t want to chance it.

Hey, babe. I don't know if I filled out the optional section. I saved all my essay responses from when I applied, and if you care, I will dredge 'em up for you.

Aww, it's so weird to have you respond to a thread of mine in SDN. Bah. Yes, I'll be home soon. We must get together, listen to VNV and cry.
