IELTS Academic – Graph Writing:
In your IELTS Academic Writing Task 1, you will be given with one or more graph(s) (i.e. bar, column, line, pie), table, flowchart, map or process diagram and you need to summarise the main information, compare data, show contrasts and trends, identify significant trends and describe a process. You should write at least 150 words, ideally between 150 to 180 words.
You are advised to finish your report writing in 20 minutes. Always present factual data based on the diagram presented, and NEVER assume something, even if this is common knowledge! Write in a way so that the reader (examiner in this case) can very easily follow the trends of the graph and understand the factual information presented in the diagram or illustration.
