Does anyone know if the Optional Essay for Chicago has a word limit?

Generally, no, but typically people say 500 words is a good optional essay limit.
That said, in my year there was some question about having traveled abroad. It was clearly intended as a short answer type question, but I still submitted something like 700 words anyway.

Hey rhyme, Is LPF always at the same location? When I went in Nov, 2007 after GSB Live it was at some lounge in downtown Chicago. You wouldn't happen to know the name of that place would you?

98% of the time it's here at school, sometimes when there are other events (like Alumni stuff or big CEO conversations etc) its downtown - I don't recall which lounge it was though, things tend to blur in grad school.

Sound right. When I went it was an alumni event. Kind of weird being a prospective in that situation because the last thing an alumus wants is to be bothered by a prospective applicant when they're looking to talk to current students, maybe even recruit.
For the community involvement section, how much space is everyone using? I've got 7-8 paragraphs (approx. 650 words) does anyone think this is too much?
Show more
I haven't seen any responses on this and am kind of curious myself. To me 650 words for this section seems a bit excessive as I would expect anything of major importance to be discussed in the essays.
If I mention an activity that I'm heavily involved with in the application EC section, is it a bad idea to include it in my PPT presentation?
Namely, I'm involved with a literacy center and I've got pics from the graduation ceremony in my PPT. Acceptable or a no-no? Also, pics from an alumni association event (I'm president of the local chapter). thanks
