    Hi Gillian

    I failed my RAP in period 40 as I have not included any formulae in spreadsheets (just graphs and charts). The topic I chose was 20 and the rest of the RAP is assessed as a pass. I understand I will need to make changes to the spreadsheets only and write a resubmission statement but am worried I can only use 1 or 2 kinds of formulae without changing my research substantially. To address the issue I have calculated year-on-year percentage changes in share prices and delivery volumes with the use of formulae and included this in my graphs.

    My question is if this would be sufficient since the topic I chose doesn’t involve a lot of calculations.

    I am also worried about the word count. I was close to the limit of 7500 words. The word count covered everything from the front page to conclusions, including charts and graphs content. If I change the graphs to reflect the use of formulae, I will go over the word count. Will this be an issue and if yes am I allowed to change written parts of RAP to reduce the word count?

    Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
