The graph compares the percentage of International and the percentage of UK students gaining second class degrees or better at a major UK University. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features.
The bar graph illustrates a comparison of the percentage of students from the UK obtaining a second-class or above degree at a major British university in 2009. Looking from an
overall
perspective, it is readily apparent that British learners have played a significant role in sociology,
although
international ones have fared better in other related activities. In 2009, both international and UK students performed reasonably well.
Moreover
, they achieved success rates of over 50% in six subjects, excluding International Law. Both groups were equally successful in Nursing and Accountancy, with accomplishment rates of just over 75% and 60% respectively.
Besides
, they achieved almost the same proportion in English Literature, with just over 70% ( native speakers) and about 68% ( non-native speakers).
Additionally
, international learners achieved the highest ratio of over 80% in the field of Information Technology, outperforming their UK counterparts.
On the other hand
, there are fields where there is a crucial contrast.
While
80% of international learners excelled in Electrical Engineering, only 60% of native speakers thrived in
this
particular field.
Likewise
, similar levels of achievement were found in sociology, but native ones had a slight edge, with the figures around 70% and 80% respectively.
Similarly
, British citizens outperformed their international non-native counterparts. not only in art history but
also
in international law, with success rates of 80% and 70% respectively.
To sum up
, the chart shows that native and international students perform differently during their studies at
this
university.
