Student Talk / Word count limits and restrictions in essays [44]

Since your teacher was fine with your length, this is just some addvice for the future.
If you've done the best writing you can do, adding on will sometimes make it repetitive and bland. Margins usually get noticed, but if you end each paragraph with only a few words on the line below, you can add a few extra lines... :]

Undergraduate / Questbridge Application, vegetarianism [10]

Ok. so this is all due on Tuesday and I've been stuck for a while.
It's really rough...Sorry! Ek. And I don't like people reading my writing. Ok.
The first is something that impacts my life, I need two more. Limit: 100 words

Eight years ago in my elementary school, I licked the last remnants of Shepherd's pie from a fork. Such a meaty morsel has not passed my lips since then. Some perceive vegetarianism as a dietary choice, but for me it is a life path with roots in appalling cafeteria victuals. Vegetarianism prevents many of the health problems sweeping America, pushes back against inhumane treatment of animals, and moves the planet towards a more sustainable existence. As one of the lone vegetarians in the Midwest, this has an impact on everyday life and leads to numerous conversations with belligerent cowboys.
