acknowledging sources in coursework

Does it matter if sources aren't in numerical order?

I added them as I found them and to rearrange them now would be such a faff.

I have the mark scheme and for both marks you need to - All sources are correctly acknowledged in the text. (must be possible for reader to find exact text ie page numbers not just title of book) doesn't mention numerical or alphabetical order.

This depends on how your teacher chooses to mark it, but in my experience that won't matter at all. May be worth doing it just in case if you care enough, but I wouldn't personally.
