I just started the supplemental application for Penn and they ask several essay questions. How long do you think each response should be? One page? 1/2 page? 2 pages per question?

Also, the first questions asks you to list dental experiences not included in your AADSAS, but I did a thorough job of including all of them. I don't want to leave this question blank but don't know how to answer it.

The length varied for people based on my knowledge. A few of mine hit about 600 words, while the others were about 300. But I was told that was longer the what most people wrote. Your call in the end. Just don't make it wordy.

As for the first question, I just discussed a couple of things I planned on doing in the coming months. I hadn't included it in my AADSAS application since that was only stuff I already did.
 
I remember looking up threads about this when I was writing it and the general consensus that I got was to make it succinct. I still ended up writing several pages...
 
Probably like half a page for each question!!!
