The bar chart illustrates the percentage of female school-leavers who entered higher education in five different countries (the UK, the USA, Australia, South Korea and France) in 1980 and 2015.

Overall, the proportion of women entering higher education increased in all countries over the period, except Australia, where the figure remained unchanged. Australia had the highest percentage in 1980, while the USA recorded the highest figure in 2015.

In 1980, approximately 35% of women in the UK proceeded to higher education, compared with 38% in the USA. These figures rose considerably to 55% and 58%, respectively, by 2015. Australia had the highest proportion in 1980, at around 58%, and this figure remained stable in 2015.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by presenting the main trends and comparing the data across the five countries. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs. However, there are some inaccuracies in the data (e.g., UK 35% instead of 30%, USA 38% instead of 40%, Australia 58% instead of 60%, South Korea 15% instead of 10% and 30% instead of 40%, France 54% instead of 55%). While minor, these could be improved for greater precision. Additionally, the statement that Australia's figure 'remained unchanged' is slightly misleading as it actually decreased slightly from 60% to 58%. To achieve a higher score, ensure that all data points are accurately reported and that the overview precisely reflects the trends shown in the chart.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is exceptionally well-organized and easy to follow. The introduction clearly paraphrases the task, and the overview effectively summarizes the main trends. The body paragraphs are logically structured, with clear grouping of countries and a smooth progression from 1980 to 2015. Cohesive devices are used naturally and appropriately, and paragraphing is skillfully managed.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is precise, varied, and appropriate for the task. The report uses a wide range of lexical items such as 'illustrates', 'proportion', 'proceeded to higher education', 'rose considerably', 'remained stable', and 'twofold rise'. These choices demonstrate natural and sophisticated control of language, with no noticeable repetition or awkward phrasing.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a wide range of grammatical structures used with full flexibility and control. Sentences are varied in structure, including complex sentences with subordinate clauses and appropriate use of passive voice. Punctuation and grammar are accurate throughout, and there are no errors or awkward constructions.
