Our friends N.Z. and A.T. took their Academic IELTS tests in the UK and collectively remembered the following questions:
Writing test
Writing task 1 (a report)
We were given a table describing the percentages of student satisfaction with 3 different subjects.
Writing task 2 (an essay)
In some countries the percentage of 15 year-olds in the population is already significant and is continuing to grow. Are there more advantages or disadvantages to this trend?
