The pie charts illustrates the number of employees had six different degrees in an advertising company in 1990 and 2010.

Overall, while there was a decrease in the percentage of staff had First Degree Art and First Degree Science, the opposite was true for the remaining degrees. In addition, it was also notable that Master Science had the largest number of employees having it, but it was surpassed by PHD Science in 2010.

As can be seen in the charts, the proportion of staff who had PHD Science in 1990 stood at 13%, after which it experienced a sharp rise to 30% in 2010. By contrast, a different change can be seen in the figure for First Degree Art, which dropped dramatically from 15% to 2% between 1990 and 2010. Meanwhile, the share of employees with First Degree Science declined slightly by 9% during the twenty years.

Regarding the remaining degrees, the percentage of staff had Master Art in both year was quite similar at around 23%. By contrast, the figure for Master Science remained stable at 29% from 1990 to 2010. Meanwhile, about 2% of employees had PHD Art in 1990, with a marginal increase to 5% in the next twenty years.

Task Response

The report addresses the main requirements of the task and provides an overview of the trends. However, there are significant inaccuracies in data reporting that affect the clarity of the comparison. For instance, the report states Ph.D. Science was 13% in 1990 (whereas the description says 29%) and that Master Science remained stable at 29% (whereas the description says 21%). While the examiner is lenient with AI-generated descriptions, the internal consistency of the report is weakened when numbers are misstated or misapplied. To improve, ensure that the data cited directly matches the visual information provided and focus on grouping data more logically to highlight comparisons more effectively.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical structure with an introduction, overview, and body paragraphs. However, the progression is occasionally hindered by awkward phrasing and grammatical errors in linking clauses. To improve, ensure that relative clauses (e.g., 'staff who had' instead of 'staff had') are used correctly to maintain a smooth flow. Additionally, work on using a wider variety of cohesive devices to connect ideas more naturally rather than relying heavily on 'Meanwhile' and 'By contrast'.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is adequate for describing trends (e.g., 'sharp rise', 'dropped dramatically', 'marginal increase'). However, there is some repetition and imprecise usage. For instance, the report confuses 'number of employees' with 'percentage/proportion' - since the charts show percentages, you should stick to terms like 'proportion', 'share', or 'percentage'. Aim to use more sophisticated synonyms for 'had' or 'showed' to demonstrate a higher level of lexical control. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are present and occasionally impede the clarity of the message. There are frequent issues with relative clauses (e.g., 'the percentage of staff had' should be 'the percentage of staff who had') and subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'The pie charts illustrates' should be 'illustrate'). There are also errors in noun number (e.g., 'in both year' should be 'in both years'). To improve, focus on mastering complex sentence structures, particularly relative clauses and prepositional phrases, to ensure accuracy when describing data.
