It is often argued that there should not be public universities as they suggest education does not improve
society
. I strongly disagree as public
professionals
have to study depending on the job. The following paragraphs will highlight my opinion and some relevant examples. First of all, it is essential for
society
to have public services,
such
as doctors and lawyers.
However
, not everyone can afford the cost of

. For that reason, the government

In addition
, as there is a very small number of people who can afford their
studies
, without the help of the government, even in private companies the number of
professionals
would be scarce and the prices of appointments would be extremely expensive. In
this
case,
for example
, just a few people would be able to have treatments.
As a result

would suffer without assistance.
To conclude
, in my opinion, public

are essential and

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

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

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
