[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's part of the "answer in your own creative way" approach. No set word limit can get kids who are not strong writers in trouble, but if you are a solid writer with a creative response, you will be fine. DCUM loves to hate on UChicago, but it's the type of thing that drew DS to the school to begin with. He loved the questions and wrote two essays before deciding which to submit. [/quote] My daughter enjoyed writing her uncommon essay and I love it. She is at Chicago now and says that most kids she knows liked writing this essay. As for word limits, it is a skill to figure out how much you need to say to have a complete answer. Long essays that drag on are not getting you in. [/quote]
