ARGH! You missed the minimum word requirement by 1 word. Just 1 word. Believe it or not, you will still have a small penalty applied to your work for that missing word. Always make sure you write more than the minimum, anywhere between 275-290 should protect you from word count penalties and help increase your score in the other sections.  
  
Your second paragraph is a prompt deviation. You are discussing the effects of Covid 19 on the ecomony,  
  
The phrase; "to a certain extent" does not meet the clear opinion statement requirements of the task. You are given a score based on your ability to give a clear opinion, which in this case is a measure response to the "extent" question. If you do not offer a clear extent response, then the essay will be scored lower due to the lack of a clearly stated opinion. An example of a more appropriate response is; "I strongly oppose this point of view based on a number of reasons.Other measures that could be considered are... " That sentence clearly indicates a measured (strongly) response (oppose) to the question being asked. There is also a clear outline of the reasoning discussion (other measures... ) presented as a part of the original discussion response. All of these would have helped secure the clarity of your opinion and the basis of your discussion. The scores of which would have a direct effect on your TA plus C&C score.  
  
Do not indicate information not in the original prompt, there has never been a debate regarding this topic over the decades. The question is being asked in the moment. Do not make assumptions that could alter the information from the original presentation. Your ability to restate the original prompt with accuracy is very important to your TA and C&C score. Be accurate, never assume, never imply, never add information. Just stick to the basic presentation, that is how you score better.  
  
What has Covid 19 got to do with the discussion? You are not being asked to discuss the negative effects of Covid 19 on the energy situation. You have just changed the prompt discussion, which means the examiner will disregard that whole paragraph, and deduct all of those words from your actual word count, which means, you do not have a prayer of passing the test at this point. You should have immediately presented your first suggestion for the alternate solution instead, then immediately followed it up with the 2nd suggestion in the 3rd paragraph.  
  
The third paragraph is also problematic as you only present suggestions without fully developing the explanation for each solution you present. That is why the essay reasoning paragraphs should have focused on the solutions only, rather than that irrelevant discussion that you presented which cause the essay to fail the test. You should have only 1 topic per paragraph unless otherwise specified. The essay you wrote has too many comprehension and formatting problems for it to achieve a passing band score. You will not pass the test yet. Not at this point.  
  
You first need to familiarize yourself with the discussion formats and how to approach them in your response. You will not want for examples of those at this forum. You will also manage to learn about how to discuss each format since proper advice is given to the students pertaining to their specific errors in the thread. These should help you avoid making the same mistakes in the future and hopefully, help you achieve a better presentation next time.
