I am doing my business assignment and it is in three stages

Contact- Just ensuring you have a business to contact
Planning- the planning stage, you total planning
Report- Final Report


The contact page was 3 pages, my planning was 21 pages, and my final report is 33 pages.....

the planning and contact parts where due a few weeks ago and i got full marks, but my final report is soo large!!!!

Do you think it is bad having it so large

It depends entirely on the content of the assignment and whether your teacher is willing to go through it, and whether a limit was placed, which I assume wasn't.

We had a 2000 word limit placed on our report worth 20% (continued over from the first section also worth 20%), so if there's none of that, and your info is relevant, it should be good.

It was, i have broken the limit by over 2000 words

the thing is my teacher loves the fact i do shits loads and gloats to the class


I have never seen him get annoyed because of legthn

Well if your teacher doesn't mind/care you'll be fine, dont worry, still best to ask him just in case.

have a look a the marking criteria, if it says "presents a clear and concise" report/essay etc. then yes it is a problem.

 

[powlmao]

so should i cut it down??? if i do i would have to cut over 3000 words.....

To be honest, and I said the same thing with your speech, I think you've got to much. Really look at it. Can you honestly say that there is nothing in those 5000 words that if you lost, it would weaken your argument and presentation.

Talk it over with your teacher. But I think you're going overboard for no practical reason.

 

[powlmao]

true, but i got full marks for my speech, and everything i have looks good and i find i hard to cut down

It'll probably go fine, and you'll do well. However, it would be my guess that you've done a lot of unnecessary work.

In the business world you need to be able to communicate your ideas as clearly and succinctly as possible. Most employees and managers don't like to have to read 30+ pages of information if it could have been expressed in 20.

 

[powlmao]

actually only reason it is 30 pages is because it is meant to be a small business we research but i did a large one

we got this assignment 10 weeks ago and we were meant to interview business owners, we were originally told we can do any business.

Later we were told to do small but my teacher said since i have started i can do a large business

i must say it is a very large assignment with over 30 aspects to cover

You no, no point trying to convince yourself by providing arguments. Just ask your teacher if it's fine, if you cant, just hope that your teacher doesn't mind.
