At least 1/3 of your essay should be the related text. So the number of words will change depending on how long your essay is.

It shoule equal to the amount you write for your prescribed text, so if one paragraph of your prescribed text is between 200-300 words, then your related text should between 200-300 words.

I've been told keep it to a 60/40 ratio. It's an OTHER related text. It shouldn't outweigh, or equal, your prescribed text.

I personally always had around 400 for prescribed, 300-350 for the first related and 200 for my second (poem).
