Re: How do you handle Task 1- letter

Allen, Myself as well, spend around the same time for task 1, but we never realized that task 1 should be given less importance. So we must practice ourselves to finish the letter within 15 minutes and no more than 18 minutes. You know why, If you get band 7 in task 1 and band 7 in task 2, you get o...

Re: ReEvalution Advice

Hi,

If money is not an issue and if it is either writing or speaking, I would suggest to apply EOR.

You don't want to lose a little chance? Do you?



Good luck

Re: T2- job satisfaction - please advice

People have different views on how to keep employees’ loyalty to a company or organization. I think you have misunderstood the topic; the question asks about why employees keep their work either because of money or any other different factors; your wordings look how companies keep their employees. ....

Re: Re-evaluation for Reading. Pls advise

Hi,

As far as reading is concerned, it is quite hard that you get your band changed because it is evaluated by a computer and another examiner checks for wrong answers,

So, I wouldn't recommend, but money is not an issue, then apply for revaluation.

Re: T2 energy-crisis

Hi Allen, Your essay seems to get band 6.5 to 7. 'huge amount' if we refer people in number, then I feel ' huge number ' would be suitable , but i am not too sure 'Risk control ' may be a good phrase, but i never read , if you are confident , then just use it. keep posting your essays Good luck durai

Re: traffic problem task 2

Hi Candy and Allen,

Thanks for your comments.


Allen, I used ' would' because its called hedging, means you cannot be 100% certain, in those cases you can use ' would'.

If I use 'will' then it is 100% certain.

I learned this at Ben Worthington podcast;
