I have seen some sample papers and it seems that there are 4 possibilities for the writing part of IELTS (for the General Training exam) and you end up getting 2 of these:

1) A Letter (based on a situation)
2) A descriptive essay (based on a given subject or topic)
3) A descriptive essay (based on 2 charts; usually a bar chart and a line chart)
4) A argumentative essay


Request to all who have already taken IELTS:
  • 1. When did you take IELTS (month and year)
  • 2. Your Score in the 4 parts of the IELTS test
  • 3. Out of the 4 possibilities listed above, which one did you get

Thank you.

1) A Letter (based on a situation) - General - will be in the test
2) A descriptive essay (based on a given subject or topic) - General - will be in the test
3) A descriptive essay (based on 2 charts; usually a bar chart and a line chart) - Academic - not for the General
4) A argumentative essay - Academic - not for the General


Request to all who have already taken IELTS:

•1. When did you take IELTS (month and year) -  2 weeks ago
•2. Your Score in the 4 parts of the IELTS test - for writing I scored a 8
•3. Out of the 4 possibilities listed above, which one did you get - the first 2 options

Thank you

Thanks for the reply Deep17. BTW, impressive score on the writing part!!! Well done :)

Are you 101% sure about your reply i.e. for the General test it ALWAYS a letter (based on a situation) and a descriptive essay (NOT one based on bar/line charts and argumentative essay)?
