task achievement
The essay you have written completely misses the given IELTS topic, which was to discuss the trend of fathers taking career breaks to care for their children. Your response, however, discusses the number of students attending music classes in an Australian university and the subsequent career paths of these students. This grave deviation from the task results in the lowest possible score for task achievement.
coherence cohesion
Your essay shows an attempt to structure information using comparison and contrast between male and female students over time, adapting to a bar and pie chart. However, your essay does not have a clear introduction stating the topic or a conclusion summarizing the main points. Additionally, the cohesion is compromised because the essay does not address the given prompt. To improve coherence and cohesion, ensure that your essay has a clear introductory statement, logically ordered paragraphs that progress through the argument or discussion, and a conclusion that summarizes the essay.
