writing9 IELTS Essays (with band scores)
163,575 IELTS Writing essays with their overall band and the four sub-criteria bands, crawled from writing9.com. Intended for training/evaluating automatic IELTS Writing scorers (band regression/classification).

Band 9 is scarce (~1k) and the most label-corrupted band. This split contains 2,500 synthetic
band-9 essays, produced by taking genuine band-8.5 train essays and rewriting them to band-9
quality with an LLM (gpt-5.6-luna-pro), then labelling them 9.0. Independent grader consensus
rates them at mean 8.54 — cleaner band-9 signal than the crawled band-9 essays. Add this split
to train to augment the tail (it improved held-out band-9 MAE from 1.04 → 0.87 in our runs). It
has only id, question, essay, word_count, and band_overall=9.0; the other fields are
null (no original sub-criteria for rewritten text).

Label quality (please read)
The band labels are crowd/site scores, not certified-examiner marks, and are noisy at the
extremes. In our analysis, two independent strong LLM graders agreed with each other to ~0.4
bands but diverged from these labels by ~1.4 on average — strongly at the tails (site "band 9"
essays were read as ~6 by consensus; "band 4" essays as ~5.3), while the middle (5.5–6.0) agreed
well. Treat single-band precision at bands ≤4.5 and ≥8.5 with caution; the mid-scale labels are
the most trustworthy. The band_overall field is the most reliable; the sub-criteria bands are
noisier still.
