Many websites claim to have 'model essays'. We think model essays should be band score 9 - which is where Cambridge ESOL place model answers. Some websites have essays which are full of mistakes. Always check who the essays are written by - a native or non-native speaker, an IELTS teacher, exam writer, or examiner, or someone else?

Here is an example.

What band score would you give it?
