Used to introduce the most important or final point after considering everything else.
“At the end of the day, what matters most is employees' overall well-being.”
“At the end of the day, protecting the environment benefits everyone in the long run.”
This idiom is a natural, conversational way to introduce your final opinion in Speaking Task 7, similar to 'in conclusion' but less formal and more common in spoken English. Use it in your closing sentence to sound more natural and fluent, which examiners value highly in the speaking sections.
Synonyms: ultimately, in the end, when all is said and done
