Well done! Mine's around 7,000 words but a lot of it is in appendices so it's around 5,000/6,000.

Oh right yeah! Mine is 6007 without the bibliography l(didn't use footnotes etcetera) My appendices will be handed in separately if we are referring to the same things!
Does anyone know whether for aqa 5000 words is a guide or limit?!

I really shouldn't have procrastinated so much on writing my stupid report up, definitely regretting it now! I'm 3,000 words in and need to send a copy to my supervisor on Thursday. :s-smilie: (Yes, yes, I know. I'm berating myself enough already.) Ah well, back to it…

On the plus side, I'm not overly invested in the final grade, so…perhaps I'll just do you lot a favour by lowering the grade boundaries?
For Edexcel EPQ how many marks are gained from activity log/ project proposal form, if any at all?

Handed in my final full draft today with all my diary entries and resources log and eep! So stressed about getting the evaluation completed and the presentation made for next Tuesday also... but then I'm DONE. Forever. Ah.

What is the differences between references and a bibliography?
Also what is an appendix?

I think references are your footnotes that you include throughout (with the lil number things that show where you got that info/quote from), and the bibliography is just all the sources you used or mentioned at the end of the project with the full info of when accessed/publisher etc.
Not 100% sure about the appendix, but in mine I included the transcript for my interview with an expert, and I think it's also used for extra like graphs and charts and stuff :-)

Apologies if this repeats any points raised previously, but has anyone done 3 A Levels and an EPQ?

So I should so have everything sorted and on the way to getting data etc but I still can think of a topic! I've bounced around between Greek mythology and China's one child rule but I'm so stuck! I really want to do an economics degree so I was thinking something to do with finance and possibly mixing the stock market with things like sociology and psychology or maybe unemployment and crime? I have no idea! If anyone could help I'd be forever grateful!

Guide. But don't go over too much or under too much.
