Guys please check this short IELTS writing exercise for grammar mistakes On the following diagram we can see the information about global sales of three different products. In the period from 2000 until 2003, people spent almost 20 billion dollars on this category. However, it was still the least popular product among the three represented. Likewise, the amount of money spent on DVDs or video was also constantly increasing since 2000. By 2003 it was almost as popular as CD, with more than 20 billion dollars spent. It was the biggest change among the three categories during the period. Finally, the sales of CDs were decreasing every year since 2000. In 2003 it was still the most popular product with more than 30 billion dollars spent worldwide. However, it is clear, that in four year the sales of CDs fell from 35 to 32 billion.

Hey there! The writing sample looks very good. Please see my suggested corrections below. Let me know if you have any questions! [In] the following diagram we can see [delete 'the'] information about global sales of three different products. [During] the period from 2000 until 2003, people spent almost 20 billion dollars ['$20 billion' is also acceptable, it is your choice] on this [which category does 'this' refer to?] category. However, it [which product] was still the least popular product among the three represented. ['Likewise' I'm not sure this is the right connecting word here. 'likewise' is used to compare]*, the amount of money spent on DVDs or video [also constantly increased since] 2000. By 2003 [use 'they were' if you are referring DVDs and videos or maybe use 'this category'] almost as popular as CD[s], with more than 20 billion dollars spent. It was the biggest change among the three categories during the period. Finally, the sales of CDs [decreased] every year since 2000. In 2003 it was still the most popular product with more than 30 billion dollars spent worldwide. However, it is clear, that in four year[s] the [sale] of CDs fell from 35 to 32 billion. *instead maybe try 'as you can see' or 'In contrast' (because these sales increased while those from the first paragraph decreased)
