Character and Fitness Addendum (Generic Question)

Hey everyone! Happy first day of applications!!

I just had a thirty second question about my C&F Addendum. Specifically, what length, in general, should an addendum be? I know that the answer to this will vary based on the situation, but for a simple underage drinking violation in undergrad I was curious about how many words would hit the sweet spot of informative, yet concise.

Excited to hear your thoughts!

Thanks!

    A short paragraph will be more than enough.

    Good luck :)

    Based on what I've heard/read from several former adcoms, concision is your friend when it comes to addenda. Ann Levine says you should "state your facts, provide an argument for why this issue won't plague you during law school or in your legal career, and get out."
