In the Intermediate 2 writing exam you will be asked to write a letter applying for a job. There are 7 pieces of information the SQA expect you to include. These pieces of information are the same every year, although the post you are applying for will differ from year to year. With this in mind, you can start to prepare for your writing exam, memorising the information you have prepared in advance. The letter should be between 120 and 150 words. You will be given the starting and finishing sentences so you don’t need to worry about memorising them. The exam lasts 40 minutes and is worth 20% of your overall mark. This worksheet contains lots of useful sentences/phrases to help you do your best in the writing exam.
