I'm getting my current English teaacher to look over my essay tomorrow. I'm glad that she's cool and she'll be brutally honest with me about it.

Question: Howard's Admission Essay requires a max of 500 words, so I was wondering if it would be wise to strive for 500??? I consider myself a decent writer, as far as high school standards go, and I tend to get to the point rather than having some long drawn out essay. I think I may need to add more to it, but I don't want it to seem like I pulled it out of my a** lol [excuse the French]

I wouldn't advise adding fluff...that will get you nowhere. As long as your essay is clear and concise, has a beginning, middle and end with supporting details for your points, you will be just fine.
