GAT -Writing What do I do?

Hi,
for GAT (writing parts) just how would I write?!
Should I write expository essay (like context) or a creative piece?
I'm not sure how to tackle this...

Any thoughts?

I had an influx of puns and literally had fun with it. Ended up with 36/40. Just know my life hasn't changed a bit and wouldn't have even if I got 0/40.

Look at GAT writing task one - basically it's as free and easy as context, actually even freer.

Note that I ended up with 32 (i.e. I think 22/40; the 32 is what they think your study score in related subjects should be) - like I wasn't intentionally bludging it, I just did some really lower-high-school-level pieces for some reason.  It didn't really hurt me.  So don't stress, but then don't be an *intentional* idiot coz you don't want to regret it if you have to get a derived score.
