Band 5+: The charts below show the percentage of male and female students of different age groups who studied in Australia for full-time and part-time education in 2006.

The bar graph illustrates the percentage of people by gender and age who studied part-time and full-time at Australian universities in 2006.

Overall, part-time studies experienced a significant choice for the same age group of male and female students during the year. It is also clear that all 3 other groups have slightly different per cent ages for both genders.

The figure for 20 to 24 man years part-time has reached around 40 per cent age, but women rose them by just two per cent age. Women 15 to 19 years preferred to spend study part-time up to 17 per cent, while men were five per cent less than they are.

The number of 25 to 29 year students who studied at college was 8 per cent for both study periods, but the number of men full-time studied dropped by 2 per cent. People over 30 years chose to study 8 per cent for part-time and 10 per cent for full-time, were women 6 per cent and 12 per cent.
