The examiner will not mark or take into consideration words that are beyond the stipulated word limit. There is no margin allowed.
1.4 If you wish to include tables and charts to support your answers to each question, this will be permitted however note that all words and numbers within the table/chart (including the title of said chart) will be counted toward the word count limit.
