AQA i think
"All project products must include a written report. The exact length of each written report will depend on the nature of the project, the subject area or topic chosen and the other evidence provided. A project product which consists solely of a research-based written report should be approximately 5000 words, for example, a research report of a scientific investigation, exploration of a hypothesis or an extended essay or academic report in an appropriate form. Where the chosen product is an artefact there must also be a research-based written report of approximately 1000 words. In order to appropriately evidence an artefact students may include photographs of each stage of development as well as the final product. It is not necessary to include large artefacts themselves as evidence, photographs or other media will suffice."

I am also doing aqa epq. Writing 4200 words will not be enough to gain the grade you want. It's better to write 5000 words and more than less. Hope this helps

Need to get to get it as near as 5000 as you can .. I think it’s give or take 200 words

If i was to aim for a grade B do you still think 4.2k is too low cos my teacher said theres no word count, 5000 is just advisory but im not too sure
