Hi everyone,
1) My recommender is asking me if the 300 characters (given for the following question: Please provide a brief description of your interaction with the applicant and, if applicable, their role in your organization) include space or not?
2) HBS asks recommenders to comment on the ratings they assign: 500 characters. Is it really optional? I wasn't even aware of that. Just asking because I find this part a bit redundant with the 1st recommendation question.
Thanks

I believe the character limit does not count spaces as characters.
In many ways you answered your own question. The redundant nature of the prompt makes it all that more optional. It is a good opportunity for a recommender to add add in nuance or caveats to their ranking. If they feel they have sufficiently answered their rating earlier in the recommendation, there is no need to respond. A candidate will not be penalized if a recommender does not respond to an optional inquiry.
Does that answer your questions?
