I'm going to have to ask you post some bikini pics in order to prove your hotness, then I will answer your question.

I originally cut & pasted from a word file, but then AACOMAS kept telling me I was over the character limit, even though I wasn't.

I ended up having to type it right in, then cut & paste from the AACOMAS page into the word file to check for spelling errors. Just make sure you save it regularly. I was almost done... went to save... and was over the time limit. I had to start all over again!

good luck!

Cut and Paste. It prevents "premature" character errors.

thanks for your help....what I ended up doing was converting my word file into a text file then cut and paste..it seemed to work.

it looks like the space provided for the essay allows less than 3000 characters because my essay is a little bit less than 3000 characters (according to word document on word count), but when I pasted it to the aacomas appplication, I get the 'warning😳ver the limit' message.

dont yo guys agree that aacomas needs to improve their online application system? 🙄

Yea-- cut & paste is the way to go... you can save it as a word document, use spell check, etc.

I also agree that AACOMAS needs to revamp their online application. I hate to say it, but it pales in comp. to amcas... at least it is shorter 🙄
