Point72 2023 Summer Academy Internship

For people who've made it past the resume shortlisting phase and have been sent the online questionnaire, any idea what rough word limits we should adhere to for the questions where there are no prescribed word limits? For context, there are 4 questions and 1 of them, specifies a 100-word limit, the rest do not. The rest of the questions use words like "what" instead of "describe" or "explain". Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Wrote maybe 1-2 5 line paragraphs and got offer - don't think it needs to be very long
