The tables illustrate the passed rate of the driving tests in one Asian country between two genders, male and female when both genders sit the test in the time interval from 1980 to 2010.

Overall

, the points qualified for passing in the category of the female examinee were much higher than that of the male examinee but there was a slight difference between the two genders in

this

period of thirty years.

Firstly

, in 1980, female test takers scored almost double male test takers, 48 per

cent

compared to 28 per

cent

, respectively.

Moreover

, in 1990, the female

also

outscored the male by just slightly over the number of 10 per

cent

points, starting approximately at 50% for the female and at under 40% for the male.

However

, since 2000

this

chart shows a downward trend in female driver's percentage of driving tests passed and an equal in the male driver's percentage of driving tests passed through the ten-years period starting from the year 2000 to 2010.

In addition

, for females, the rate was going short by around 5 per

cent

, which ranges from roughly 70th percentile to over 65th percentile. For males, the rate in these two columns stayed exactly the same at 49 per

cent

in the interval of ten years.
