Lexical Resource

The student uses a good range of vocabulary, including words like 'despite', 'require', 'knowledge', 'profession', 'economists', 'biology', 'chemistry', and 'depth'. However, there is room for improvement in using more precise and sophisticated vocabulary, such as 'irrelevant' instead of 'doesn't require' and 'in-depth' instead of 'deeply'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The student demonstrates good grammatical accuracy with only a few minor errors. The phrase 'despite of the fact' is incorrect and should be 'despite the fact'. The sentence 'It's not nursery, uh, to learn, um, biology and chemistry deeply' is grammatically awkward and could be rephrased for clarity. Overall, the student uses a variety of grammatical structures correctly.
