nonce Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Quick question, for schools that give no information on what they are looking for in their personal letters, what is a 'good' length. I realize that there are a ton of IM applicants, so an especially long letter, I imagine, would possibly be a detriment to one's application. But what is too long? I was thinking of the 800-1000 word range....but really had no idea. Ive read longer and shorter ones, but all were for other disciplines.

carebear15 Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 when i started writing, i thought it would be impossible to say what i wanted to say in 500 words (which some programs, not im, have stipulated). however, it didn't turn out too badly. i would say 600-700 words is a good length. It's about 1.25-1.5 pages, gets your message across, and is not too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
