Dear Sally,
Thank you for inviting me to join your housewarming
party
in coming sunday
. Change the capitalization
Sunday
However
, I am sorry for telling you that I could not attend your party
.
The reason for not joining attending the party
is that my medical professional exam
is coming soon. It will be held on next Monday, the day after the party
. As this
exam
is very important to my career development, I really need to focus on my study in order to pass the exam
with flying colours. I should have replied to you earlier, however
, I just received your invitation because I have not checked my mailbox since last
Monday. I have been staying at home and studying from day to night.
Although
I could not attend the party
on Sunday, I still want to catch up with you. I will be free for a week after sitting for the exam
. Are you available next Tuesday or Wednesday? We could have a cup of coffee and watch a movie together. Once again, sorry for not participating in your party
and I hope you have a great time at the party
. See you soon.
Best wishes,

Use cohesive linking words accurately and appropriately
Linking words are very important in your essay.
To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.
Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.
In fact, the only sentences that can omit linking words are your background sentence and thesis.
Linking word examples:
- firstly
- secondly
- thirdly
- in additional
- moreover
- also
- for example
- for instance
- therefore
- however
- although
- even though
- despite
