Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by presenting the main trends and comparing the data across sectors and salary levels. The overall structure is clear, with a brief introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs for each salary level. The data is mostly accurate, though there is a minor error in stating that construction had the lowest minimum salary when transportation actually had the lowest. This is a small lapse that does not detract significantly from the overall quality. To improve, ensure that the overview accurately reflects the most salient points, and consider using more varied vocabulary to describe trends and comparisons.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized and easy to follow. The introduction clearly paraphrases the task, and the overview effectively highlights the key trends. The body paragraphs are logically divided by salary type, and the use of cohesive devices (e.g., 'Overall', 'Looking first at', 'Regarding', 'As for') helps guide the reader. However, there is a minor issue in the overview where 'construction had the lowest minimum salary' is stated, but the data shows transportation had the lowest minimum (£843 vs £790 for construction). This is a factual inaccuracy that slightly affects coherence. To improve, ensure that the overview accurately reflects the data and consider using more varied linking phrases to avoid repetition.

Lexical Resource

The report demonstrates a good range of vocabulary appropriate for the task. Words like 'illustrates', 'by far', 'ranked second', and 'relatively similar' are used effectively. There is some repetition of 'salary' and 'figure', which could be varied with synonyms like 'earnings', 'income', or 'amount'. Additionally, the phrase 'three various salary levels' is slightly awkward; 'three different salary levels' would be more natural. Overall, the lexical resource is strong, but more sophisticated and varied vocabulary could be used to achieve a higher band. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report uses a variety of sentence structures, including complex sentences and appropriate use of passive voice. Punctuation is generally correct, and the grammar is accurate overall. There are a few minor issues, such as 'the figure for finance had the highest maximum and salary average' which could be more clearly phrased as 'the highest maximum and average salaries'. Also, 'at just £843' is slightly misleading because £843 is not the lowest; it would be better to say 'at £843, which was the lowest'. These are minor and do not impede understanding, but refining them would improve grammatical precision.
