Why word count matters
Assignments often have minimum and maximum word limits. Checking early prevents last minute editing stress.
Check more than words
Also review paragraphs, sentences and repeated keywords to improve readability.
Use it before submission
Paste your assignment draft and compare the word count with your brief.
Improve structure
If the text is too long, remove repetition. If it is too short, add examples or explanation.
