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.

In the Crankshaft line, there were several CNC machines available—a total of 9 machines in 8 stations. In the first three machines, only one machine is available in each operation, whereas in other stations, two machines were available for each station from OP 40 to OP 80. OP 10, 20, and 30 were used for pin grinding, and OP 40 to OP 70 were used for shaft grinding. In the case of shaft grinding, feedback was important, which we collected by using a Marposs gauge.

The internet has become profoundly efficient and popular that people choose it as a platform to learn. Some believe that it would eventually replace the need for books. Do you agree or disagree?
E-learning has always been a popular platform throughout time and still gaining more popularity over time. Whereas, the book has always left a positive impact on readers.
