The diagram below depicts the dissertation completion in a United Kingdom university among students in 1990,200, and 2010.
From a general perspective, the chart illustrates that the bulk of students who finished their projects tended to increase over time, meanwhile, the number of those who failed to write constantly declined, and the number of people who were required to rewrite fluctuated.
In 1990, 150 pupils finished on time, whereas approximately 20 failed to meet the time requirement. Around 60 postgraduates abandoned their submissions and less than 10 were required to rewrite everything.
Contrary to the first surveyed year, the dissertation submission figure, whether it is late or on time, continued to rise steadily, from 150 to approximately 260 in 2000 and 360 by 2010. Similarly, the number of students who completed their dissertations late doubled over the 20-year period from 1990 to 2010. In contrast to the aforementioned data, it is observed that the tally of those who were unable to submit their essays declined from nearly 60 to 40 in 2000 and eventually dropped to fewer than 10 by 2010. In comparison, the total of those who had to redo varied with a significant rise from less than 10 to almost 50 before declining to around 35 in 2010.
