Task Response

The answer is relevant to the question and demonstrates a clear comparison between the past and present. However, it could benefit from more detailed descriptions of the activities and a more explicit explanation of the changes. Consider providing specific examples of projects and how the approach to evening activities has changed.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is understandable, but the fluency could be improved. There are some hesitations and repetitions ("you know", "very important, it is important"). A more concise and smoother delivery would enhance the score. Try to plan your response briefly before speaking to improve flow.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate, but some phrases could be more precise. "Many projects on my subject" could be replaced with a more natural expression like "many projects on my plate." The phrase "a part, very important" is unclear and could be improved. Using more sophisticated vocabulary would improve the score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical errors. "I now more relaxed" should be "I am now more relaxed." The sentence "I must complete this project" should be "I had to complete these projects." The use of "needed to give up exercising" is grammatically correct but could be improved stylistically. The overall grammar needs improvement for a higher score. Focus on subject-verb agreement and correct tense usage.
