Harvard, Stanford, Penn, and Cornell ask for 2 page statements.
Berkeley asks for a 4 page statement, Chicago asks for 2-4 pages, and Northwestern recommends 1-3 pages.
The other T14s (Yale, Columbia, NYU, UVA, Duke, Michigan, Georgetown) do not specify a page limit.
What do you all recommend?
I think my 4 page statement for Berkeley is pretty solid and paints a better picture than my 2 page statement. I would consider submitting something similar for schools that do not state a limit, but I don't want to appear too long-winded either. Do you think that 4 pages is too much for these schools?

Think of the adcomms (I think you know the answer to your question).
