also
very old. Yesterday, the chair and table were broken. One thing is that we have no space for standing
as well as
do anything.
Last
week, my friend visited my area at that time I felt very embarrassed because of the space. I want to change my accommodation. I would prefer a big place with an attached washroom and closet as well

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.
