You can use simple, compound and complex sentences to showcase your writing skills. You get a better score for displaying your vocabulary and lexical skills. However, use the appropriate and meaningful words to convey your message clearly.

As long as the complex words used fit grammatically in the sentence and they express your ideas in an understandable as well as logical manner, they are acceptable and useful to improve the band score
