Hello.

Tepper Application says.. that the "Suggested Length:2 double-spaced pages per essay"

But what does that mean??

1) What is the font size and font type??
2) What should be the right,left,bottom,top margins??
3) What should be the line spacing??( does double spaced mean 2.0 line spacing?)

There is no suggested font type but standard is to stick to the standard i.e. Times New Roman. I guess font size 10. (I will verify this again and let you know. For now finish the essays :D)

Leave the margins also at standard.

Yes double spaced means the 2.0 line spacing. (You can edit that in font settings right?)
Vineesh,
Just telling you what I know and think. I am not the expert. :)

10-point font is a little small. Go for minimum 11-point; f 12-point is actually standard. TNR is a good choice for the font face. Make it look professional and easy to read.
