A mixed advantages-and-disadvantages Task 2 that also asks for your opinion has three jobs. Name both sides and state your view in the introduction — do not hide it until the last line. Practical shape: two-sentence introduction; one body for one developed advantage; one body for one developed disadvantage; two-sentence conclusion that returns to the same view. This is not an “outweigh” essay unless the prompt asks which side is stronger, and not a “discuss both views” essay unless it says that. Two sides with no decision miss “give your opinion.” One side only misses the other half. We do not promise a band. Practice IELTS marks the four writing criteria as a practice estimate, not an official score.
