In terms of percentage of employment, more than 75% were graduates of the math field at the beginning of the duration, and this proportion was nearly the same over the period except in 2008, when it increases to around 80% to be intersected with other graduates percentage. Meanwhile, the other graduates started with nearly 60% and reached the peak of about 85% in 2006, then it decreased linearly less than 75%.

A noticeable difference was existed between both of them afterwards ($5000, $4000, and $5000 in 2008, 2010, and 2012, respectively) with math graduates had the higher salaries reaching $56,000 at the end of the period.
