Currently, I'm in school, so I study a diverse area of subjects rather than focusing on specialized ones. However, I can share my future plans for university. I intend to major in computer science, especially informatics. Coding, in particular, excites me and drives my interest in this field. I've been programming since fifth grade, and I have a great passion for it. In the future, I want to be a mobile developer, create mobile apps, and have other people appreciate them. That's my dream.

Task Response

This is an excellent response. The answer directly addresses the question and provides a clear and detailed explanation of the student's motivations. The future-oriented aspect is well-handled and adds depth to the response. Consider adding a sentence or two about specific aspects of computer science or informatics that particularly appeal to you.

Fluency & Coherence

The answer is coherent and well-structured. The slight hesitation and the phrase 'other people will appreciate' could be improved for greater fluency. Consider rephrasing to 'I want to create mobile apps that other people will appreciate' for better flow and precision.

Lexical Resource

Vocabulary is mostly accurate and appropriate. The use of 'diverse area of subjects' is good, and 'informatics' shows subject-specific knowledge. However, more sophisticated vocabulary could be used to describe the passion for coding. Consider words like 'captivated,' 'fascinated,' or 'enthralled'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammar is mostly accurate, with only minor errors. The sentence 'I have a great passion for it' is slightly less formal. Consider using more complex sentence structures to demonstrate a wider range, such as using subordinate clauses or participial phrases. The final sentence could be improved by changing 'That's my dreams' to 'That's my dream'.
