I took ielts for the second time last October and unfortunately, i still get a 6.5 in my writing ( i need a grade of 7 out of 9 band score, equivalent to a rate of 90% in our grading system ). I don't have any problem in other parts, I get 8.5 both in reading and listening and 7 in speaking but writing is my waterloo.
I hope you can have sections here how to write charts (pie, bar,line) and some processes (life cycle, flow chart, etc). It would be a great help for all of us who are taking IELTS. In addition, I wonder what is the best writing style you can employ for this type of examination where examiners are looking for big words, complex sentences, perfect subject verb agreement, collocations, idioms and great content. (just thinking of this already gives me headache)
It is just so difficult, although only opinions are asked from you, topics ranges from poverty to economy, from government to space travelling and nuclear energy, are just so hard. Not to mention, a very limited time to finish two writing task. There is no way anyone can prepare for this, only a perfect English writing skills can save anyone from this exam, unfortunately, I am very poor in english, my self esteem really went down because of this.
Before, it is my dream to go to Australia, now all I want is to pass my IELTS exam....
