Table below describes information regarding expenses and overall weekly spending of students in 4 different countries.

Through the chart we can make out that country A is by far the most expensive one out of them all, whereas country D is the cheapest one on the table.

It’s quite important to highlight that by far the biggest expense of them all is the cost of living being put consistently as the biggest or next to the biggest money drains on the table. The smallest in the column of costs is sighted to be accommodation. Tuition sits comfortably in the middle, being neither too expensive or too cheap.

All in all, we can see that students spend the most on the cost of living, paying the bills, buying the food, and healthcare. At the same time the money spent on making their live more comfortable as their accommodation expense is much lower in comparison. This tells us that Students are more focused on their immediate needs and paying tuition, instead of bettering their living space and performing recreational activities.

Task Response

The report identifies some general trends, such as Country A being the most expensive and living costs being a major expense. However, it fails to fulfill the core requirements of the task. There is a significant lack of data; the report does not mention any specific figures (numbers or dollar amounts) from the table or the chart to support the claims. Furthermore, the report lacks a clear overview of the relationship between the table and the chart. To improve, ensure that you include specific data points to substantiate your descriptions and avoid making speculative conclusions about student behavior (e.g., 'Students are more focused on their immediate needs'), as the task is to report facts, not interpret motivations.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical progression in terms of ideas, but the organization lacks the formal structure required for an academic report. The introduction is somewhat abrupt, and the transition between describing the table and the chart could be smoother. To improve, ensure you use clear paragraphing: one for the introduction/overview, one for the data in the table, and one for the data in the chart. Avoid using overly conversational phrases like 'It's quite important to highlight' or 'All in all', which are more suited to essays than data reports.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is somewhat informal and repetitive (e.g., 'money drains', 'sits comfortably', 'making their live more comfortable'). While there is an attempt to use descriptive language, it often veers into subjective interpretation rather than objective reporting. In Task 1, you should avoid speculating on the reasons behind the data (e.g., 'Students are more focused on their immediate needs'). Instead, focus on using precise academic synonyms for 'increase', 'decrease', 'highest', and 'lowest'.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

There are several grammatical issues that affect the professional tone of the report. For instance, 'the cost of living being put consistently' is a fragmented construction, and 'making their live' should be 'making their lives'. There is also a lack of variety in sentence structures; many sentences are simple or rely on informal phrasing. Aim to use more complex sentence structures, such as relative clauses (e.g., 'Country A, which has the highest total expenditure, also shows...') to improve your score.
