The table compares the satisfaction levels of undergraduate and postgraduate students with two different user categories with three university facilities in the UK in 2004.

Overall, the postgraduate students recorded higher satisfaction levels for most aspects, except for study facilities in the bedroom. Similarly, they also had higher levels of dissatisfaction with most facilities, except for the university cafeteria.

In terms of the figure, the figure for study facilities in the bedroom in postgraduate students was 65%, 2 percentage points lower than that for undergraduate students. 15% of postgraduate students rated facilities as not at all satisfied, while the undergraduate students evaluating not at all satisfied made up around 26%. Regarding the university cafeteria, very satisfied accounted for almost 52% of all undergraduate students, while 32% of them were quite satisfied and 16% of them were dissatisfied. By contrast, the postgraduate students rating it as very satisfied made up 70% with only 3% of them were not at all satisfied.

In terms of social facilities, the majority of postgraduate ones evaluated very satisfied at 80%, the highest figure among the three facilities. By comparison, fewer than half of undergraduate students gave the same rating. Only 5% of postgraduates reported ones recorded the low satisfaction with facilities, compared with 30% of undergraduates.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by presenting an overview and comparing satisfaction levels between undergraduate and postgraduate students across the three facilities. The overall structure is clear, with an introduction, an overview, and detailed paragraphs. However, there are some inaccuracies and inconsistencies in the data (e.g., the cafeteria figures for postgraduate students are misreported, and the undergraduate 'not at all satisfied' percentage for study facilities is incorrectly stated as 26% instead of 17%). Additionally, some phrasing is awkward or unclear (e.g., 'the figure for study facilities in the bedroom in postgraduate students' and 'postgraduate ones evaluated very satisfied'). To improve, ensure all data is accurately transcribed from the visual, and refine sentence structures for clarity and conciseness. The report covers the main features and makes relevant comparisons, but attention to detail in data reporting would enhance task achievement.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is generally well-organized with a clear overall statement and a logical progression from one facility to another. However, there are some minor lapses in cohesion, such as the phrase 'In terms of the figure, the figure for...' which is repetitive and slightly awkward. The use of 'Similarly' in the overview is not entirely accurate, as it introduces a contrast rather than a similarity. The paragraphing is adequate, but the second paragraph could be more clearly structured to separate the discussion of each facility. To improve, use a wider range of cohesive devices and ensure that linking words accurately reflect the relationship between ideas.

Lexical Resource

The report demonstrates a good range of vocabulary, with appropriate use of terms like 'satisfaction levels', 'rated', 'accounted for', and 'evaluated'. There is some repetition of phrases such as 'very satisfied' and 'not at all satisfied', which is acceptable given the data, but the report could benefit from more varied expressions, such as 'highly satisfied', 'moderately satisfied', or 'dissatisfied'. The phrase 'the majority of postgraduate ones' is informal and could be replaced with 'the majority of postgraduate students'. Overall, the lexical resource is adequate but lacks the sophistication and flexibility expected of a higher band score. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, including complex sentences and appropriate use of passive voice. There are very few grammatical errors, and the report is generally accurate. However, there are a few minor issues, such as 'with only 3% of them were not at all satisfied' which should be 'with only 3% of them not at all satisfied' or 'and only 3% of them were not at all satisfied'. Additionally, the phrase 'reported ones recorded' is awkward and could be simplified. Overall, the grammar is strong, but a few minor corrections would enhance accuracy and fluency.
