Nowadays many high schools and universities require students to work on projects in groups, and all members of the group receive the same grade (mark) on the project. Do you agree or disagree that giving every member of a group the same grade is a good way to evaluate students? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. Be sure to use your own words. Do not use memorized examples.

in an equal way will negatively impact the student's learning process.
Instead

may think that since he/she got the same grades, they would feel equivalent to others in the

.
This

,in turn, would cause them to misinterpret the areas they lack educationally.
For example

group

did what we were asked and received similar grades.
One

day, during a surprise visit by the head professor, asked our teacher to demonstrate the biology projects. We got on with the explanation and halfway through he stopped us and corrected all our mistakes. Individualised grading is crucial so we do not repeat the same mistake again and learn from it.
Secondly

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.
