You are allowed to use appendixes without word count but you should use the appendix only to support your main body of text. E.g. you might want to use the appendix for an in depth analysis and then you only use the key findings in your main text. (in this case you would say in the main text – for a more detailed analysis, please see appendix…) in order to save words.
For specific and detailed guidance you will be able to discuss in the first instance with your course leader Dr Martin Goerlich.
