A concrete answer regarding exceeding wordcount for the Geography Field Study

Ambient Occlusion · 2013-03-18 23:43:29

I'm probably about one hundred over in all, maybe less. I know I have gone over but frankly my writing is tiny and it masks it well. Even if I am penalised, how many marks do I stand to lose? I only ask this question because, even though I've searched it here, there never seems to be a concrete answer. Thanks in advance.

100 words over should be sound. When asked at the end of the booklet what the word count was I put in something like 1,080 although it was probably hundreds more. There were some people in my class who had way more than me as well. Nothing came of it. So long as you're not writing on the blank pages where you're supposed to be drawing, don't worry about it.
