Thanks again for the help!

You will need a student who has completed the whole registration process to be able to submit your essays. Have them get in as soon as possible to make sure they have the permissions needed to input the essays. Last year we went through 4 students before we found one whose login worked.
The executive summary is a series of 7 questions, each with 500 characters. You will enter them each separately in the same place you enter your chairman's essay. Do not add formatting, since the program strips it all away!
There is a counter for the Chairman's essay to tell you how you are doing against the 10000 character limit.
When you get the student into STIMs you will see all the places to put everything and it should be much clearer.
The yearbook submission - or judges questions are found in TIMS. They are shorter than the executive overview. They give the opportunity for you to talk about your robot, what awards you feel you are strongest for, and demographics about your team.
I hope this helps!
