What is a "Continuation box"?

[JimTC]

In the Freshfields application, there are 6 essay questions. One of them is just 2 words: "Continuation box" as the writing prompt.

The question before the "Continuation box" question is "Please write about your background, career, interests and aspirations in no more than 850 words. You may wish to mention any positions of responsibility held at school or subsequently, any regular employment or other work experience or other achievements and any particular interests and personal qualities which are significant. Please also state briefly why you are making this application." If I can write my 850-word answer to this question, what is the purpose of the asking "Continuation box"?

I believe that box is for anything that you have not mentioned in your application that may support it, for example serious disruption to your studies/ mitigating circumstances or disability requirements that has not been mentioned in the form before.

There's actually another box asking for mitigating circumstances after the "continuation box" question so I don't think Freshfields would duplicate the question twice on theri application?
