Task Response

The report attempts to address the task but contains significant inaccuracies and omissions. It mentions five subjects, but the visual description only provides data for four (Business, Engineering, Medicine, Arts). Additionally, the figures cited (e.g., 80% for engineering, 70% for arts, 75% for computer science, 55% for business, 60% for medicine) do not match the provided data, and the subject 'computer science' is not mentioned in the visual description. The report also lacks a clear overview of the main trends and fails to make accurate comparisons. To improve, ensure all data is accurately reported, avoid introducing subjects not present, and provide a clear summary of the key features with correct comparisons. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a logical structure with an introduction, an overview, and body paragraphs, but the flow is disrupted by frequent punctuation errors (missing spaces after commas) and some unclear referencing. The overview is somewhat vague and does not clearly summarize the main trends. Paragraphing is present but could be more effectively managed to separate key comparisons. To improve, ensure each paragraph has a clear central idea and use cohesive devices (e.g., 'while', 'whereas', 'in contrast') more accurately to link ideas smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is adequate for the task, with some attempts at variation (e.g., 'exceeded', 'outnumbered', 'recorded a figure for'), but there are inaccuracies and awkward phrasings (e.g., 'slightly highest percentage', 'accounted for 80%' without clear subject). The range is limited, and some terms are used repetitively. To improve, use a wider range of precise vocabulary for describing data (e.g., 'constituted', 'represented', 'accounted for') and ensure collocations are natural (e.g., 'the highest percentage' instead of 'slightly highest percentage').

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report attempts to use a variety of sentence structures, but there are numerous grammatical errors and punctuation issues that impede clarity. Examples include missing spaces after commas, incorrect verb forms ('Following by this' should be 'Following this'), and subject-verb agreement problems. Some sentences are incomplete or run-on. To improve, focus on sentence construction, ensure correct use of past tense, and proofread for punctuation. Using a mix of simple and complex sentences accurately will enhance grammatical range.
