Thank you for submitting this perceptive report draft for improving the knowledge of different post-secondary pathways for high school students. This draft is well-organized and raises some insightful points. Executed with sufficient evidence and a professional tone, this draft delivers valuable and meaningful information.

Content

This draft contains all the required sections for assignment 3.2:

  1. The introduction started with a description of the problem, straight to the point;
  2. Description of data sources and survey findings with a list of collected data highlights;
  3. At least two illustrations with explanation for review and;
  4. Conclusion of findings for summary and recommendations.

Organization

The draft is clear and efficient, ensuring that the content is easily-digestible for technical and non-technical readers. There are few revisions to consider:

  • Under ‘Scope of Inquiry’, the six areas begin with the number II, rather than I.
  • The ‘Table of Contents’ does not denote ‘A. Summary of Findings’

Style

The draft is written in a professional and friendly tone, and it exceptionally reflects YOU attitude.

Design

The graphics are well-designed and visually appealing, the graphic resolution might be a bit low, but it is a common technical difficulty from data exportation. Consider the following recommendations:

  • Export the data received from the survey into Excel or Google Sheets; then, directly upload the chart onto your document.
  • Replace the legend that describes the “Mean” as it can be confused as the X-axis label.

Grammar & Spelling

This draft is professionally written with minimal observable grammatical errors. The content is concise and straightforward, which allows for an easily-digestible report. Consider the following revisions:

  • Page 3: “With various options, including university, college, trade apprenticeships…”
    • Revise to: “With various options, including university, college, and trade apprenticeships…”

Conclusion

This exceptional draft displays passion and professionalism in order to deliver a pragmatic composition of content. Ensuring that high school students are well-informed about their  options should be set at the forefront of many peoples’ priorities, especially parents, counsellors and post-secondary representatives. Therefore, this paper seeks to deliver purposeful and insightful content that is well-supported and evidence-based.
