I went through all matriculation exams from 2008 till 2019, and only found two letter assignments (2013 and 2015)! It wasn't until 2020 that there was a new letter assignment. This was, however, a motivational letter, which you may or may not have written in course 6.
(please compare this to the next section: Letter to the Editor, which is NOT a regular letter!)
If you have to write an email, use these same rules!

REMEMBER TO ADD YOUR NAME AT THE END!
Option 4
Autumn 2022
Opettajan kommentti: puhuttelu kirjeen alussa/lähettäjän nimi lopussa on oltava.
Vähennys 2p jos toinen tai molemmat puuttuvat.
Option 3
Autumn 2020: motivational letter
notes:
• Muodollinen aloitusfraasi ja nimi lopussa (lopetusfraasi voi olla, mutta ei välttämätön)
Jos puuttuu toinen tai molemmat, -2p
• Jos yksi tai useampi käsiteltävä asia puuttuu, - 5 p
-> nämä opettajan huomiot EI löydy YO-kokeesta!
Option 2
