Encourage a friend to study nursing

Writing Task 1: Writing an Email
Time remaining: 27 minutes 00 seconds

Your friend Rosa has worked in retail for ten years but has always dreamed of becoming a nurse. Yesterday she told you that, at 38, she thinks she is too old to go back to school. You know someone who started a nursing program at 41.

Write an email to your friend, Rosa in about 150–200 words. Your email should do the following things:

  • Respond to Rosa's worry.
  • Share the example of the person you know.
  • Suggest a first step she could take this month.
