Band 7+: The graphs below show the percentage of math graduates and all graduates who got full-time job after graduating from a university in Australia, and also shows the average salary of both grads, from 2004 to 2012. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant. Write at least 150 words.

The line graph illustrates the proportion of maths graduates and all graduates who secured full-time employment after completing their university degrees. The table, on the other hand, reveals their average earnings from 2004 to 2012.

Between 2004 and 2012, the percentage of full-time workers with university degrees experienced a slight decline for both maths and all graduates. In contrast, the average salary of maths graduates showed a steady upward trend, while all graduates experienced steady growth.

The proportion of full-time workers with maths degrees began at 80% in 2004, peaked at 90% in 2006, and returned to 80% by 2012. During the same period, the percentage of full-time workers with other degrees jumped from over 60% in 2004 to nearly 90% in 2008 and then dropped back to around 60% in 2012.

Notably, the salaries of maths graduates and all graduates remained static at $41,000 and $43,000, respectively, in 2004 and 2006. However, they showed a significant upward trend from 2008 to 2012. By 2012, the average salary of maths graduates had reached its highest point at $60,000, surpassing that of all graduates, which stood at $51,000.
