that was published in the Deccan Chronicles newspaper on 10th July 2023. It was stated in the article that the oldest English-speaking
University
is Cambridge
instead
of Oxford
University
. It is very important to issue articles with apt details as they serve as informative advice to many of its
readers
. It was highly disappointing that a high-end newspaper brand having its
readers
worldwide had issued incorrect information. The oldest English-speaking
University
is Oxford
University
which was established in 1096, and still continuing its existence.
However
, Cambridge
University
was established many years later. I kindly request you to correct the article and re-issue it at the earliest , to bring it to

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.
