Writing essays

The two Writing essays

The Writing test ends with two 30-minute essays: an Argumentative essay that takes a position and supports it, and an Informative/Explanatory essay that explains an issue using two sources. Write one here, then Mia tells you, for each feature scorers look for, what is there and what to change. Feedback only, never a score.
