it actually depends on the question.. but a couple of 'em go upto 300 words..

  I was under the impression everything after 120 words gets cut off so I had to revise my 800 word 'What is your company going to make?' answer!

    Indeed. This was one of the problems that we faced early in our application for this session. From what I've gathered as far as the YC app, they want to know that your company would do, not a complete run down of the process. My advice would be to get to the point as quick as possible and use whatever else space (<= 150 words) for additional, essential details. Good luck!
