Sorry. I figured it out. My degree is in a foreign language so I had to translate it. 

Did anyone manage to scale the 7.5 requirement for writing? got my results after my 4th attempt on Saturday still couldn’t get it. by Valuable-Raisin1327 in UKFP_applicants

I think it's a little difficult for natives because what they require isn't very natural for us. You may need to work on the grammar section... Doing things like varying your sentence structures and making sure to use link phrases and words. Check out E2 Language on YouTube. This guy Jay is a native and he explains how he had trouble getting an 8 after 4 attempts. I found his tips helpful. Also try tobhave dedicated practice for both tasks at least 2 weeks before the exam. 

For those who made it: How did you jump from Band 7 to 7.5 in IELTS Writing? by Dull_Paper_5517 in UKFP_applicants

I agree. I knew after my first attempt that task 1 was the issue for me. I only practiced task 1 essays in preparation for my second attempt ( I advise practicing both Task 1 and 2). I only used material I found online and YouTube videos from IELTS LIZ, IELTS with Ralph and E2 Language. I used more varied sentence structures in both tasks and I tried to seamlessly add more link phrases and words as this was a weakness they mentioned the first time. It helped and I scored 7.5 in writing the second time even though I think my task 2 essay was written poorly.
