Task Achievement
To improve your Task Achievement score, ensure that your response addresses all parts of the task. As it stands, the essay touches upon various aspects of self-driving vehicles, but it could benefit from more specific examples and a deeper exploration of the implications of each point.
Coherence and Cohesion
For better Coherence and Cohesion, focus on creating smooth transitions between ideas, and ensure each paragraph clearly relates to a central idea. Additionally, developing a clear and consistent topic sentence for each paragraph will help guide the reader through your argument.
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.
