The table illustrates the distribution of scholars who study in UK universities by graduation years and gender.

It is evident that the number of students from both genders had increased from 1996/97 to 2009/10. There were less full-time postgraduates than those studying part-time for female. While, the trend for male learners fluctuated over those years.

In 1996/97, the majority of postgraduates were scholars studying part-time with 113,961 individuals, while there were only 75,370 full-time students. The proportion changed in 2009/10 when male students studying at full-time were more in number than part-time learners as they were 151,275 and 117,105 people in order.

For female, the trend remained the same as part-time students made up the majority over these years. Initially, there were 62,344 full-time and 108,702 part-time scholars. The numbers rose to be 146,980 and 163,340 in 2009/10.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by comparing the two genders and the two modes of study across the specified time periods. An overview is provided, and key trends - such as the shift in male study modes and the consistent dominance of part-time study for females - are highlighted. To improve, ensure that comparisons are more integrated; for example, comparing the growth rates of males versus females would add depth. Additionally, be careful with grammatical structures, such as the use of 'While' as a standalone sentence starter, which can affect the flow of the report. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a logical structure, with an introduction, an overview, and two body paragraphs divided by gender. However, there are issues with cohesive devices. For example, the use of 'While' at the start of a sentence fragment ('While, the trend for male learners fluctuated over those years.') disrupts the flow. Additionally, the transition between the overview and the details could be smoother. To improve, ensure that subordinating conjunctions like 'while' are used to connect two clauses within a single sentence rather than starting a new, isolated sentence.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is generally appropriate and shows some attempt at variety, using terms like 'scholars', 'individuals', and 'learners' to avoid repetition of 'students'. However, some phrasing is slightly unnatural, such as 'more in number than' or 'the trend remained the same as part-time students made up the majority'. Using more precise academic collocations, such as 'outnumbered' or 'predominated', would elevate the lexical quality. Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a mix of simple and complex sentence structures, but there are several grammatical inaccuracies. There are issues with subject-verb agreement and article usage (e.g., 'for female' instead of 'for females' or 'for the female students'). The sentence structure in the overview is also problematic due to the fragment mentioned in the coherence section. To improve, focus on the correct use of plural nouns when referring to groups and ensure that complex sentences are grammatically complete.
