    But in resubmission when marker failed you first time in E&A giving the reason that Narrow Range of Sources were used and rectify that problem. Then marker will only check Narrow Range of sources problem or marker can Fail on another thing this time (Can marker give a new reason for failure)?

    I know world count is not itself a reason of failure but with less words markers thinks that analysis is weak. In my case marker said in my E&A that I used narrow range of sources which I have corrected this time. I hpe marker pass me πŸ™

    Ok guys so now there are more chances of failure. You both know better than me but what I know is that marker will see whether I rectify my report according to the feedback given to me or not? I have done whatever marker said previously. I havent changed the organization and topic. If we change topic then our report is marked from scratch but if the topic is same then marker only checks his previous feedback and what student has done to make it right. Word count would be a problem if I would have changed the topic/ organization. I counted my words again, they were 6750( including data used in graphs/ charts). I hope marker understands that in resubmission we only have to do things told to us. πŸ™‚

    That is I think the reason for my failure was not giving Refences only. πŸ™

    And this is what marker said in Reference section

    Reasons for fail and advice for improvement:
    As mentioned above, your referencing is very weak in large parts of the report and this must be strengthened.

    These are the markers comments in my E&A

    There are virtually no references in your analysis, particularly the ratio analysis (not even the annual reports) so what analysis you have provided cannot be identified to a source, and thus we cannot confirm your findings and conclusions. This also suggests that you have not researched a wider range of sources,

    As I stated above they failed me in references along with E&A giving the reason that I haven’t given any references in my ratio analysis due to which marker said the sources used in my analysis cannot be verified. Marker assumes that this happened because I used “Narrow Range of Sources”. In overall feedback marker said that the reason for my failure is referencing along with using few sources of information ( because I forgot to give any single reference in my entire ratio analysis, maker thinks my rch is weak) This time I have given references and Citation properly along with many new reasons for change in performance. Last time my words were 6000, this time 6500. According to me the only reason for my failure was reference, E&A section was failed because marker was unable to know which sources I used. This time marker cannot fail me on reference or Range of Sources that is something about which I am sure. Hower, on the basis of 500 words short, marker can say that my analysis is weak or not enough πŸ™

    Well in my previous result they mentioned “Range of Sources” along with “Weak Reference” πŸ™ , I am justing hoping that word count would not become a reason for failure this time, because I have adjusted my report to the best of my abilities and accordingly to the feedback. According to me the only reason for my can be this new World Count rule. πŸ™

    I used same company and same topic with updated financial statements (Offcourse). I have improved my report just as asked by the marker. I just want to know that word count can be a new reason for my failure this time? or the marker will only check the section on which I got failed last time? As far as I know marker only checks whether a student acts upon the advice given in the feedback or not?

    My SLS was pass, the only reason for my failure in RR was the referencing section. Can word count be a new reason for my failure this time???
