Hi Seniors,
I have attempted 4 times for the General Training exam, and each time I scored 6.5 in writing. Now I am going to sit for the 5th time, and so would like to seek guidance from all of those who did well in their writing.
Thanks in advance.
I scored an 8 in writing :
Try these things

Write short 4 5 paragraphs
count the words you write in each sentence.
Usually people write 5 to 6 words
count the lines . put an end where 300 words in practice so in exam u can write more than 260
never ever copy from the question paper use your own words.
Answer every part of the question for eg:
Some universities now offer their courses on the Internet so that people can study online. Is this a positive or negative development?
divide this question into 3 parts and answer .
when you have to give your opinion "
Kindly give your opinion in the introduction .......agree, disagree or balance between
Conclusion should be not more than 3 lines
To score 7 ;
In every answer give an example ,, remember they are checking your English and not your opinionnnn it can be fake as well , use simple words as they help you avoid spelling mistakes.
Use words as:
Moving on
however
nevertheless
in my opinion
in conclusion
hence forward
giving an example is critical to score 7 plus
Firstly , secondly and finally.
In my test I got the question people buy second hand products rather than new products ... it is good ? do you agree or disagree
I gave an example of treadmill ,,
secondly, people now but stuff online pay through cards
My opinion was a healthy balance between new and old products.
hope it helps
