Their essay limits are really high and I know length should not be a consideration, but I was wondering how much you guys wrote for the autobiography? I mean 2000 words is like 4 single spaced pages. I know more is not better... but I'm sure we could all fill in 4 pages of cool stuff from our lives.

I was thinking about cutting mine around 2 pages (single spaced). Any thoughts? And what about the subsequent essays... you write a page each on those too?!?!

I was only about 1300 on my autobiography. For the shorter ones, I was much closer on the word limit. Hope that was sort of helpful.

I think you should come close (1500+). Don't stop short or it may seem like you don't have a very interesting life. Elaborate on details that made you who you are and why.
