The given bar graph illustrates the change of four categories of students in Great Britain in over the period from 1990 to 2005.
Overall, the numbers of all four kinds of students (males-full time, males-part time, females-full time, and females-part time) experienced remarkable rises. In addition, the figure for total students in 2005 reached the maximum, while that in 1990 was the lowest.
To begin with, starting with 200 thousand, the number of males students who study full time rose to around 300 thousand in 1998, before significantly jumping to 800 thousand. Likewise, with only less than 200 thousand at the beginning of the period, the figure for females counterparts slightly increased to merely above 200 thousand, followed by a sharp surge to over 800 thousand by the end of the period.
On the other hand, there were only about 100 thousand part-time males students in the year 1990. The year 1998 witnessed a moderate drop and its number declined to half of that in 1990; however, it soared to its peak in 2005, representing over 800 thousand. With around 100 thousand in 1990, the number of part-time females doubled in 1998; thereafter, it reached its maximum of 800 thousand in 2005.
