Spelling
American or British English spelling is accepted.
Over and under length answers
Where an answer fails to reach the minimum word length, this will be taken into account when awarding marks for Task Fulfilment.
Where an answer obviously exceeds the maximum word length, a candidate is bound to have produced a text of lower quality (i.e. to have made more mistakes) due to time constraints. No explicit penalty is to be imposed on over-length responses.
