What is in this test
-
Task 1
Recommending a New Sport
An email to a friend: which sport would suit them, how they could learn it, and why you recommend it.
-
Task 2
A Cashless Future
An essay on whether cash will disappear from shops, and why some people would be unhappy to give it up.
What each task asks for
Writing has no question types to list — it has two tasks and four marking criteria. Each one links to what it wants and where the marks go:
Timing and marking
You get 60 minutes for both tasks together, and you decide how to split it. Task 2 is worth more than Task 1.
Writing is marked by an examiner-style assessment against the four criteria, not by counting right answers. Nobody can honestly promise you a band — what practice buys you is a screen that feels normal on test day.
What is different on a computer
You type into a box with a live word counter, so you can see your length as you go. There is no handwriting, and editing a paragraph costs you nothing but the keystrokes.
