Use specific figures when relevant: In Academic Task 1, avoid vague words like “a lot” or “many.” Precision is key, so quote specific data from the visual provided.

Example:

  • Vague: “A lot of people used the subway.”
  • Specific: “Approximately 65% of commuters used the subway in 2020.”

Use accurate vocabulary: Words like “about,” “approximately,” and “roughly” are useful when the exact figure isn’t required, but it’s still important to avoid generalizations. This precision helps demonstrate an understanding of the data.
