task response
Task response should focus more on addressing the friend's request for advice on studying the subject and its application, rather than the general discussion of course completion.
coherence and cohesion
The greeting and closing are friendly, but could be more formal as this is a letter of advice for a university course application.
lexical resource
The letter lacks professional and academic vocabulary related to the subject, and could benefit from a wider range of vocabulary to express ideas more precisely.
grammatical range
There are several grammatical errors and sentence structure issues that impact the overall clarity and coherence of the letter. Use of more complex sentence structures would also enhance the score.
