Now the question you have to state the word count on the front page. I have weeded the words from 1800 to 1586. There&#39;s no way that can be cutdown furtheren-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/118738?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 21 Aug 2011 06:03:00 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:d9fdfa5e-14c3-4f1c-8e7c-522924cb68a5Sarah Gough<p>Thanks Guys. I did email the course provider at the same time. Nothing in the guidelines stating about penalites other than the usual no more than 1500 words in bold. I got a response from the course and they allow a 10% margin if necessary. So I&#39;m fine!</p> <p>Cheers for the responses.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/118702?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 20 Aug 2011 12:43:58 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:cdd43179-9e37-47c3-ad08-f55b711f3701Nick Shackleton <p>I aggree that it is usuallt 10%. Is there nothing within the guidelines about penalties for being over your word count? I would also suggest you email the course support</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/118698?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 20 Aug 2011 09:33:21 GMT1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:d3b83e17-db8d-4501-ac2a-c5645e1d166eNJ_VN<p>&nbsp;Most assignments have a word limit +/ 10%, in which case you&#39;d be fine <img src="http://www.vetnurse.co.uk/emoticons/new/Happy_smiley.png" alt="Smile" /> would be worth emailing whoever set it and asking if thats the case with yours</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
