Dear ESL king,
I just got done with my English exam and I wanted to express my profound gratitude toward your dedication and determination to help me to get from a D writing style to almost an A writing style

where can i find oct/nov 2023 candidate response?
Unfortunately, we haven’t released them yet. Please accept our sincere apologies for this.
hi, its me again. Trust me your sample emails are a game changer! My mind has expanded so much and I am gaining alot of confidence.
That’s wonderful to hear! Thank you for your positive feedback!
Dear ESL KINGS,
I really love these samples! Really helpful, including the notes. However, reflecting this there is only one particular review which is helping us since the 2024 slyabus has changed and summary is no longer there so it makes it really hard to find A+ Samples. My exam is on May 8 for Reading & writing Paper. Please help me with this. One thing I also want to ask is that if you will be able to check my email as I am not sure if I will be able to score excellent marks in this. My highest I have received is 13/15 but I was wondering if you could check the same one and remark it as I really need this A+ in my english exam. Thank you
Warm regards,
Ayaan Yousuf.Dear Ayaan,
Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad you found them helpful!
There are actually four review writing samples available as of today: M/J 2019 V2, O/N 2019 V1, F/M 2022, and a film review.
We have unfortunately suspended our marking service since it requires a lot of time and effort which we can’t provide at the moment. Please accept our sincere apologies for this. 13/15 is actually a very good mark, and if you continue practicing, you will be able to sustain it and get that A* inshallah.
Good luck with your exam!
Best regards,
ESL Kings team
Hello there, is there a higher or lower possibility that this years June examination would ask ‘essay’ writing as part of the question?
Hi, it’s not possible to know for sure whether it will come in the exam or not, so it’s best to be well-prepared for all types of writing.
I was curious to know that would you add the speaking skills sections as mostly are not confident and scores the least in speaking skills it would be really helpful if you could add the transcript of the interview
Thank you for your question. While our website’s main focus is on the writing section, we will consider adding notes for the speaking section in the future. The “transcript of the interview” part is not clear though. What do you mean by that?
I meant that you can give an transcript of an A* speaking interview which means answer of the student but in text form not as audio
Ok, thank you for clarifying; we now understand what you mean.
Isn’t the word count between 150 and 200 words?
The word count used to be 150-200 words, but it is now only 120-160 words as per the new syllabus.
Will that be a penalty for writing too much?
As we mentioned before, exceeding the word count itself is not penalized; rather, it is the increased likelihood of students making mistakes and spending more time than required for this exercise that can affect their marks.
could you guys check the word count most example exercises go way past the word limit.
Hi Lan, these samples were written when the word count used to be higher than it is currently in the new syllabus. It is also important to note that exceeding the word count itself is not penalized; rather, it is the increased likelihood of students making mistakes that can affect their marks. Nonetheless, thanks for bringing this to our attention; we will make sure the word count of new samples aligns with the new syllabus.
