Deeltaak

Two of the twelve tasks on Schrijven I are partial, and they are the ones candidates lose marks on without noticing. What is given is not context to read past — it fixes your register, your tense and often your subject, and everything you add has to agree with it. The difficulty is that the constraints are invisible: nothing on the page says "stay in u", the given half simply already is.

Two of the twelve tasks, inside the 100 minutes. The forms are real ones — a registration, an appointment, a claim — and they punish a different thing than the writing tasks do: an answer that does not fit the field. A date in a name field, a full sentence where the form wants one word, an empty required line. Two assessors mark against a scheme that asks whether the requested information is present and usable, so a beautifully written sentence in the wrong box scores nothing.

Achternaam: / Geboortedatum: / Postcode:

A field wants a value, not a sentence. One word or one number, in the format the field implies.

Reden van uw verzoek:

This field does want a sentence. Field labels tell you which kind; read the label, not the box size.

Geachte … → u, uw

The given opening fixes the address form for everything you add. Switching to je halfway is a marked error.

… schreef ik u … → verleden tijd

The given tense carries on. If the fragment is in the past, your addition stays there.

Niet van toepassing / n.v.t.

A field that does not apply to you still needs something in it. Blank reads as unanswered.

• Reden van annulering: Ik kan niet komen, omdat ik die week moet werken.

  The label asks for a reason, so a sentence is right here — and the reason needs its omdat-clause with moet at the end. A single word like "werk" would be usable but thinner than the field invites.

• Geboortedatum: 14-03-1992

  ✗Geboortedatum: Ik ben geboren op 14 maart 1992.

  A value in the format the field implies. Writing "Ik ben geboren op 14 maart 1992" is correct Dutch answering a question the form did not ask.

• Geachte mevrouw Bakker, vorige week schreef ik u over mijn aanvraag. Ik heb daarop nog geen antwoord ontvangen.

  ✗… vorige week schreef ik u over mijn aanvraag. Ik krijg nog geen antwoord van je.

  The given first sentence sets u and the past tense. The addition keeps both. Switching to je, or to the present, is the error this task type is built to catch.

• +Exception 1

  Where a form field genuinely has no answer for you — a second phone number, a previous employer — n.v.t. or a dash is the right entry, not an invented one. Filling a field with something untrue to avoid a blank is worse than the blank, because a form is a factual document.

• ✗Reading the given part as background and then writing as if starting fresh. It is the constraint, and every mismatch with it is visible to the assessor.
• ✗Writing full sentences into value fields. It costs time you need for the other ten tasks and answers a question the form did not ask.
• ✗Leaving a required field empty because the answer felt obvious from another field. The scheme checks fields, not inference.
• ✗Slipping from u to je once the sentences get longer. The given half already chose; you are only continuing it.
