Does any of you here experienced submitting a CDR to Engineers Australia where the no. of words for each career episode is more than 2000? I have already prepared mine and I am having difficulty targeting the desired no. of words most especially on the Personal Engineering Activity part. I always reach beyond 1000 words for this part alone. Do you also include in the counting the words in the heading, tables and figures label and paragraph numbers? Also, in the event that I do not reach the maximum no. of words (that is 2000) but no. of words in Personal Engineering Activity part is beyond 1000, will this still be acceptable? Will EA deduct points for career episodes with more than 2000 words? Kindly enlighten me as I am having trouble revising my career episodes just not to go beyond 2000 words.
As always, thank you very much!

To answer your question, try to limit the words sa required. Try to be straight to the point, In my opinion, it would sound more technical & professional. Basahin mo yun thread ng EA, meron tayo kasam dun wherein pinaulit sa kanya yung essays niya dahil mahaba masyado.
