Writing tips for self-practice
- Plan your response before writing. Even a 30-second outline lifts the score band.
- Use transition words. "However," "for example," "as a result." Connectors are scoring signal.
- Match the register. Academic discussion is forum-tone. Email is polite but direct. Different voices.
- Paraphrase, do not copy. Borrow ideas from the prompt but rewrite them in your own words.
- Review and revise. Re-read the last 30 seconds. Fix one grammar mistake. Add one transition.
- Concrete details beat abstract ones. Specific examples score higher than generic claims.
