We can observe from the pie chart that suitable degree courses were the most concern in both years. While close to parental home was the most influential factor in 1987, it became the second most significant factor among students choosing a UK university in 2007.
According to the charts, 35% of students chose a suitable degree course at a particular UK university in 1987, which was higher than 2% until 2007. Besides that, the quality of resources dropped from 21% to 17% between 1987 and 2007.
Similarly, good sports and social activities declined dramatically, from 19% to 6%. Over the period, the quality of teaching grew by a small percentage, approximately 3%, and reached 18% in 2007. The proportion of students who wanted to be close to their parents increased double to 20%, and it's a big chance.
