| Overview | Overall: sinh viên đại học bị chi phối bởi tính cách và chiến dịch tranh cử của ứng viên; học viên sau đại học coi trọng kỹ năng và kinh nghiệm, nên lý do phổ biến nhất ở hai nhóm khác nhau. Không số liệu. |
| Body 1 | Friendly personality 31% so với 12%; Campaign promises 22% so với 17% (gần nhau); Recommended by friends 15% so với 5% (gấp ba, miếng nhỏ nhất của postgraduate). |
| Body 2 | Communication skills 27% và Previous experience 26% (cộng 53% ở postgraduate) so với 18% và 8% ở undergraduate; Academic record 13% so với 6% (khoảng gấp đôi). |
The two pie charts compare the principal reasons why undergraduates and postgraduates at a university voted for their student representative.
Overall, undergraduates were swayed mainly by a candidate's personality and campaign, whereas postgraduates placed greater emphasis on skills and experience. Consequently, the most common reason was different in each group.
A friendly personality was the most frequently cited reason among undergraduates, chosen by 31%, compared with only 12% of postgraduates. Campaign promises came second for undergraduates at 22%, but here the two groups were closer, since 17% of postgraduates gave the same answer. Recommendations from friends showed a much wider gap: 15% of undergraduates relied on them, three times the postgraduate figure of a mere 5%, which was the smallest slice in that chart.
Postgraduates, by contrast, were chiefly guided by communication skills (27%) and previous experience (26%), which together accounted for over half of their responses. While communication skills also mattered to a fair number of undergraduates (18%), previous experience was named by just 8%, making postgraduates more than three times as likely to choose on this basis. Academic record ranked in the lower half for both groups, though at 13% it carried about twice as much weight with postgraduates as with undergraduates (6%).
