CWRU essay: Single or Double space?

[Tweetie_bird]

Trivial question but I'm not sure what to do about it. Did you guys single or double space it? It says two pages, so may I just single space it all?? I have a lot to say.

I single-spaced my two-page essay on the state of artificial intelligence research.

I think that was actually the most fun essay I got to write....

hey, thanks for the quick reply. I wonder what the others are doing.

My essay is not as unique as yours..or perhaps it is. Oh well, we'll find out.

I single spaced mine too. It was about how great golf is.

I single spaced mine - 2 pages about - wrote about my english lit minor and how I like Chaucer and the Canterbury Tales. Last year I wrote about football and the Miami Dolphins. Needless to say, it did not impress them I suppose.

I guess my friend who is also applying to CWRU is not writing a unique essay afterall since you are writing about the same thing.

I did a page and a quarter single spaced about soccer in the United States and how I've been involved with the sport my whole life. BTW, 2 pages is the limit, I don't think it implies that you need to write an entire 2 pages. In fact, I bet they'd appreciate a few shorter essays here and there that are clear and to the point.

ok, another CWRU question:

The envelope that came to my house was post marked Aug 14, and they have said to return it within two weeks after receipt. I know i did not receive it on Aug 14, b/c that's when it was post marked. So, now 2 weeks after Aug 14th is the DAY AFTER TOMORROW. And I am not ready with my essay yet. Do you think they care if it's a day or two late??? I could just try and finish the essay tonight (which is not yet polished) and have it expressed FEDEX tomorrow a.m. I just don't wanna waste the 10 bucks.
What do you say?

I think this came up before, and the answer was that they recommend that you return it quickly. The absolute deadline should be listed somewhere on there.

Yeah, the absolute deadline is in late December or early January or something.

i single spaced it; i'm one of those people that tends to write a lot and end up having to cut back on things so there was no way i could double space.... i wrote about education and my ed. minor, the other big love of my life besides medicine...
