A great personality can be impressive:

Some people think that if you have a great personality, then it can impress your examiner easily. This is totally false. Examiners are trained by the international trainer and are continuously monitored during the exam.

Writing across the limit will help you get more marks:

If you write less than instructed words, you will absolutely lose the marks. However, if you write extra words, you will not get extra marks. Better is that write only instructed number of words and concentrate on the rules of the language.
