The graph below shows the percentage of 18-25 year olds in universities in four 
different countries. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main 
features and make comparisons where relevant. 
The given line graph illustrates the proportion of university students in four countries, 
namely Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand, between 1961 and 2011. From a 
cursory glance it is manifest that more students went to universities from Singapore and 
Thailand than from Malaysia and Philippines.
A small minority (2%) of Malaysian students between the ages of 18 and 25 went to 
universities in 1961. This percentage increased significantly and reached 10% by 1971. Then 
there was a steady increase and by 1991, 15% students went for tertiary education, after 
which their number stabilized and remained at that level till 2011. Approximately 7% 
Filipinos of this age group attended universities in 1961. Their percentage also increased 
over the given period and reached a little under 20% by 2011.
Singaporean students going for tertiary education were 15% in 1961. Their percentage 
increased markedly and reached 40% by 2011. There were fluctuations in between, but 
overall the trend was upward. The Thai students studying in universities decreased from 
24% to 20% from 1961 to 1991, but after that there was a dramatic increase and their 
percentage almost doubled in the next two decades.
Overall, there was an upward trend in the 18-25 year old tertiary education seekers, in the 
given four countries.
