    Any ideas as to approximate length...?

    Hi everyone, I'm filling out the standard congressional nomination packet http://menendez.senate.gov/services/academy/academy_application.pdf?x=82&y=20 ...and there's no indication as to about how long each of the responses should be. They're really open ended, so I could write anywhere...
