    Will excluding the title “Reuters” result in failure even if I applied good practice throughout? So disheartened by it as I was desperate to get a decent paying job next year using the degree.

    I chose topic 8. Although I included links of annual reports in reference list for the selected company but I didn’t include competitor company’s annual report- will this lead to a fail?

    I’m really afraid!

    As long as you included references to the competitor’s annual reports in your reference list this should not be a problem if you did not include the actual links. If however you ignored to mention them at all then this could be a potential problem since the Assessent Criteris stipulate that ‘all citations used in the body of the text are included in the reference list and can be traced to source’

    Some markers check references more thoroughly than others so it is impossible to give you a precise answer!
