IELTS General writing help

Hello,

I need to score 7 in each band of the general test. so far I have done the exam three times with no success.

First time I did not study very well but my result was,
W 7.0, S 6.5, L 7.0, R 6.5
Then after a year I tried for the second time in last August, (I studied well)
W 6.5, S 7.0, L 8.0, R 8.5
Again in the October 18, my third attempt, (I was confident about listening and reading, so studied only speaking & writing..)
W 6.5, S 7.0, L 7.5, R 8.0
In this third exam speaking test, I was bit sick and therefore not performed well. I really did not expect 7!
But for writing, I thought I will definitely get 7 since I have practiced harder. Now I have tried every thing I could at the writing.

I'm bit confused with the next one in January, What to do for next writing test?

Is your handwriting clear?

Hello OnlineEnglishTeacher,

My handwriting is not that much clear, specially when I m writing faster. It happens in every test (I usually use pencil for writing).
Do you think it affects the score greatly?

One of my Skype students went from 6 to 8 in 1 month - their handwriting had been terrible.
