task response
Score: 4. This is only a plan, not a full essay. Most parts have dots, so there are no real ideas, reasons, or examples about free health care and paying for treatment.
task response
Write two full body parts. In the first, explain why health care should be free, such as help for poor people and early care. In the second, explain why people should pay, such as less waste and more money for hospitals.
task response
Give your own view clearly and add one or two reasons. For example: basic health care should be free, but people can pay for extra services.
task response
Use real, clear examples. Do not write only “many countries have introduced ...”. Say what they introduced and how it helped people.
coherence and cohesion
Score: 4. The order is easy to see, but the links cannot work well because the main sentences are not complete.
coherence and cohesion
Make each part follow one simple order: main idea, reason, example, result. This will make your writing easy to follow.
coherence and cohesion
Do not put “As a result” and “From my perspective” in the same sentence. End the second view first, then start a new sentence for your own view.
coherence and cohesion
Fix the start. “There has been a growing debate about whether” is not complete. Write the full topic after “whether” or use a direct first sentence.
coherence and cohesion
Check small errors: “discuss” has one s, “both views have their own merits”, and “long-term” needs a hyphen.
task response
You have a clear plan: discuss both sides and give your own view.
coherence and cohesion
You use a clear four-part shape: start, first view, other view, and end.
coherence and cohesion
Words such as “Firstly”, “However”, “For instance”, “As a result”, and “To conclude” show the order of your ideas.
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.
