Hello Jenni,

There is some nice work here but you need to take care with countries and nationalities. I personally think that the summary paragraph should be at the end of the essay. I think you should also mention the numbers increasing up to the age of 35 - 50 before declining in 1990 but in 2010 the numbers were increasing up to 51-65.

When do you take your test?

Best wishes
