Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 150 words in writing task 1. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long letter will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 160 to 190 words in writing task 1. This will ensure a concise letter and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 20 minutes to write the letter and you need around 5 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long letter in 15 minutes.

Some people believe that it is good to share as much information as possible in scientific research, business, and the academic world. Others believe that some information is too important or too valuable to be shared freely. Discuss both these views and give your opinion.
On account of modern technological advancement, there has been a significant demand for subjects in relation to science and technology in higher education. Under the circumstances, there has been contention over whether students opt for either their favourite courses or some practical subjects which are often associated with science. Although taking those subjects may bolster students’ career prospects, I strongly argue that they should have the right to choose their preferred study, considering the current school curricula as well as their motivations.
