Task Response

The report appropriately addresses the task by presenting the main features and making comparisons between the two schools. The overall trend is clearly identified, and key data points are included. However, there are some minor inaccuracies in the data (e.g., science for School A is stated as 8% instead of 9, and language for School B as 17% instead of 18) and a few spelling/grammatical errors (e.g., 'wherease', 'graft' instead of 'craft', 'Noticebly', 'Meanwile', 'respectiveley'). To improve, ensure data accuracy and proofread for spelling and word choice. The structure is logical, but the language could be more precise and formal.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report has a clear overall structure with an introduction, an overview, and a detailed comparison. However, the flow is sometimes disrupted by awkward phrasing and unclear referencing (e.g., 'the latter preferred humanitary subjects rather than science' is vague). The use of cohesive devices is basic and occasionally inaccurate (e.g., 'Meanwile' is misspelled and used incorrectly). Paragraphing is not effectively managed; the second paragraph is a long block of data without clear separation of ideas. To improve, use clearer topic sentences and ensure each paragraph focuses on a distinct aspect (e.g., one for School A, one for School B, or one for comparisons).

Lexical Resource

The report uses some appropriate vocabulary (e.g., 'accounted for', 'constituted', 'respectively'), but there are several inaccuracies and repetitions. Words like 'graft' instead of 'craft', 'humanitary' instead of 'humanities', and 'spots' instead of 'sport' are incorrect. The range of vocabulary is limited, and some phrases are unnatural (e.g., 'the most favourite subject'). To improve, expand your lexical range with synonyms for 'popular' and 'accounted for', and ensure correct spelling and word choice. Use more precise terms like 'the highest proportion' or 'the least preferred'. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report contains numerous grammatical errors and punctuation issues that affect clarity. Examples include missing articles ('the information 60 students'), incorrect verb forms ('account for' instead of 'accounted for'), and misspellings ('wherease', 'Noticebly', 'Meanwile', 'respectiveley'). Sentence structures are mostly simple and repetitive, with limited use of complex sentences. To improve, focus on subject-verb agreement, correct use of articles, and consistent tense. Practice using a variety of sentence structures, such as relative clauses and conditional forms, and proofread to eliminate spelling errors.
