Questions
- Is there a maximum word count?
- No. There is no upper limit, but very long answers take time from the other task and tend to have more mistakes. Aim for about 170-190 words in Task 1 and 270-300 in Task 2.
- Does the title or my name count?
- Only your answer counts. Do not copy the question; copied words are not counted towards your total.
