the IELTS essay is really basic. When I took the test, I had to write a letter changing the date for a hotel reservation.

It is really nothing too difficult, just read everyday english articles/ letters/ opinion writing.

Well I mean it will have some effect because they need to know you can at least convey information properly. They don't expect you to be a english grammar guru.

For band 5, for example, it says: may make noticeable errors in spelling and/or word formation that may cause some difficulty for the reader
