A friend of mine did Business at a level, produced nothing near the word count the OP has to and he got 2 A's!

It does sound a rather shocking amount of work, and I've barely been on the forums btw 
did he have the same piece of coursework though?
There was an option to do an exam instead of coursework which i am no thinking i should have done.....
well it is, i could send you the example im going off if you would like?
gah im hungry, not eaten since about 8
You should see the amount of work we get in ICT, the last one i did was about 120 pages long,then a day after handing that in we were given our next piece!!
Are you sure you are expected to provide a report of similar length to the examples. No matter how much you say it, I refuse to believe you need to write in excess of 30,000 words.
we weren't given a word count it was more like a "it will be as long as it needs to be"
and to be honest im not writing an excessive amount for sections, im just writing in detail and im half way through and on 40 pages, 15,000 words.
New way to say your dog ate your homework?
Good luck with getting it finished!
haha!
Thankyou Kyuss, im gonna need it!

that seems like an insane amount of work for college... unless maybe it was something that was given to you at the start of the year but still...

What exam board is it? AQA?

We were given it in september, its my own fault really but i was putting it off because i've had that much other work

Nice digging, it smacked of fallacy...

I'm doing coursework as well!! Except it's ICT, I gave my Economics in last week.
hmmm, i have never seen that and have no idea as to how that wordcount is possible to be honest, there is no way that all the sections could even be included at that let alone enough detail to get the marks

Well i almost fell off my seat when you said 30,000...as did many. A friend of mine, well ex-friend, is on the same course as myself. She is VERY detailed with everything she does, always going over the word limit. I achieved a grade 1/3 higher than hers and under the word limit simply because sometimes the best thing to do is keep it simple.
...so either you're now WAY over the limit and didn't pay attention in class or you're lying.

aha, well i am completely lost now, i will have to ask my teacher tomorrow about it (out of curiosity as it is a bit late to do anything about it now!)
I would agree with what you say but its just that all of the examples we have been given are between about 25,000 - 50,000 words!
