To bring the best out of writing test, you can think of using STEW approach. STEW approach is a technique which helps you to place your feet in evaluator's shoe. Thus, you can write the perfect answer and score. STEW technique is your Situational Thoughts carrying your Emotions (the explanation) by understanding what evaluator Wants from you?.

60 mins seem to be very less when one is not prepared with how to structure the essay/report/letter. Once you are well aware of the structure, taken 5 min to think about the main content, ideas and views. Once you are clear with your standpoint and views, decide which paragraph will have which view. Then the prime focus becomes only the usage of lexicon. There on, bit by bit and piece by piece you keep on writing and end up with a beautiful essay within a time limit. Spend 40 min on your essay. Apply same logic for your reports and letters. read less

use the techniqe of scanning, skimming the data. Read the questions first and then read the first and last sentences of every paragraph, this will help you to predict data. these are some techniques to finish your section quickly

Think Oraganise Write Fix and Look over. So your actual writing time should only take about 45-50 minutes, for the remaining time you should plan and fix the essay for any errors
