Presentation
You are required to present your individual coursework in essay format. This means we expect to you to write a short introduction, discuss your key arguments in the main body, and then finish with a conclusion, and a list of references.

Include the NBS front cover that we provide a copy of which indicates your details and the essay question number and word count at the start, and use page numbers throughout. Your introductory paragraph should introduce the essay (i.e. your argument), not the topic or the case organisation.

Note: essays do not have numbered paragraphs, sub-headings, or appendices.

Only use high-quality reference material (no dictionaries, websites, Wikipedia, or 'anons'). All 2,000 words are for your essay text; the list of references at the end are excluded from the wordcount. We do not expect to see numbered paragraphs or sub-headings, appendices, or diagrams.
