It is difficult to asses your actual writing skills for the task 1 essay because you wrote it in a manner similar to a task 2 essay, which requires 250 words. You cannot complete 250 words during a 40 minute task if you are to focus on the quality of the writing in relation to the score. It is not true that you will get a high passing score if you write more words. Instead of writing more words, you should focus on proving that you can report the information before you in a clear manner, using the correct vocabulary in a short and quick manner. This kind of presentation only opens you up to more grammatical issues that will lower your final score, if you even manage to finish the essay within 20 minutes.
