coherence cohesion
Ensure the dates are presented in a clear and consistent format (e.g., 28/7 should be 28th July to avoid any confusion).
task achievement
Avoid minor grammatical errors (e.g., 'We a looking' should be 'We are looking').
suitable writing tone
Polite and professional tone throughout the letter.
logical structure
Clear structure and logical flow of ideas, making it easy to follow.

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.
