Task Response

The report attempts to address the task and identifies general trends, such as the overall increase in female applicants. However, there are significant issues with data accuracy and consistency. The report frequently cites figures that do not align with the provided visual description (e.g., citing 60% for Canada or 58% for the USA), and it introduces a year (1980) that was not part of the primary data set. Additionally, some descriptions are contradictory; for instance, stating Canada was 'stable' while also implying it was 'dominant' with specific figures that fluctuate. To improve, ensure that all reported data points strictly match the visual information provided and focus on making accurate comparisons between the two specific years mentioned in the task.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs. However, the progression of ideas is sometimes hindered by awkward phrasing and imprecise transitions. For example, the phrase 'Of the other forms' is not an appropriate way to transition to a new category of data. To improve, focus on using more natural cohesive devices such as 'In contrast,' 'Regarding,' or 'Turning to...' to guide the reader through your comparisons.

Lexical Resource

There is an attempt to use a variety of vocabulary (e.g., 'witnessed,' 'significant growth,' 'proportion'), but there are several issues with word choice and spelling. Words like 'beggining' and 'appeoximatly' are misspelled. Additionally, some phrasing is imprecise, such as 'remained dominant and stable in front of other regions,' which is not a natural way to describe statistical dominance. Aim for more academic collocations, such as 'remained the highest' or 'outperformed other nations.'

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and complex structures, but grammatical errors are frequent and occasionally impede clarity. There are issues with tense usage (e.g., 'are increased' instead of 'increased') and prepositional errors (e.g., 'in end of the period' instead of 'at the end of the period'). Pay close attention to article usage ('the') and ensure that your verb tenses consistently reflect the past timeframes mentioned in the task.
