i've never been in an essay competition per say, but from the question you posed, i would imagine there is no "right" or "correct" answer. it seems to me that they want to see your writing process:
1. can you write legibly
2. can you convey your thoughts in a timely manner
3. can you be succinct when necessary
the question seems to be sort of a brain teaser, and perhaps many will be that way. not sure if i really helped or not. :shrug:
