Hey, I have a question. I finished my EPQ on the extent to which homosexuality is accepted in the UK at about 7,100 words when fully edited and complete. I spoke to my teacher who said this was fine and I noted they said this in my Project Log. It's been sent off to be marked. My problem's the opposite of others - I had to edit down about 9,000 words as much as possible to try and get closer to 5,000. Will being over 2,000 words over the word count affect my grade? Or is that just a recommended word count?
Thank you.
