Common trap
Only writing cities have more jobs without consequences for rural areas or public services.
- Whether the migration motive is clear
- Whether city pressure is specific
- Whether rural impact appears
Task 2 question guide
Migration prompts need why people move and who carries the result.
This IELTS Task 2 question does not need a memorised model essay first. The key is what the prompt compares, who should act, and what result the body paragraph must prove.
Do outline diagnosis before writing the full essay.
Diagnostic evidence
If causes and results are both vague, the essay reads like a common-sense list.
What to ask while reading the prompt
Separate cause, destination pressure, and origin-area effect first.
What to revise after checking
Write one migration chain: job gap -> worker move -> city pressure -> policy response.
