    Over half of all Latin Americans have enrolled in some form of tertiary education, which refers to the university level and above (graduate school, etc.). The rise from the figures of the early 1970s to today have been drastic, seeing nearly uninterrupted growth.

    I don’t get the percentages… I know for certain 60% of men don’t go to college in the US, so I can’t figure out what those numbers mean

    Perhaps we should start men-only programs to achieve equality

    The disparity between male and female enrollment in Argentina is huge.

  5. This data isn’t beatiful. Having significantly more than 100% in some cases is a clear indicator, that under- and overage people according to the statistic have a big influence on the overall number. But it is impossible to tell how big that influence is.

    And it is a very different discussion, whether the dominance of women is present in normal college age groups, or if it is only an artefact, of women living longer and attending senior university classes.

  6. Graph is not colour blind friendly. Cannot determine male or female based on colour alone. Perhaps add different shapes as well.

  7. That’s unfair – men should get extra points during admission for equity’s sake

  8. Well, makes sense, as men are more likely to go into trades / physical labor jobs that do not require a college degree.

    Even after reading the disclaimer, I still don’t understand how the numbers are over 100%

    Data is beautiful…

    …140% of Argentinian women are in college.

    Yep, fits this sub perfectly.

    Puerto Rico is part of the U.S. yet it’s, again, listed as a separate country.

    How can it be over 100%? Does that mean some go into two or what?

  13. Impressive how so many people can’t read the footnote explaining the percentage

    whoever made this picked horrible colors for gender. I’m moderately colorblind and all the dots look the same lol.

    I’m quite surprised that rates for men & women are equal in both Pakistan and Nigeria.

    I wonder if that’s an artifact of poor data?
