What Motivate Students to Choose a College
The pie charts present the changes in what students considered when choosing a university in the UK in two separate years.
Suitable courses and degrees were the top factors for students to choose a college in 1982 and 2002, although they decreased by 6% from 40% in 1982 to 34% in 2002. The figure for location showed a similar pattern, modestly falling from 19% to 16%. There had a sharp decline in costs, only at 5% in 2002 compared with nearly 30% in 1980.
The amount for the remaining three factors presented a different pattern. The percentage of amenities, social activities and sports facilities noticeably grew to 18% in 2002, over three times more than just 5% in 1980. The proportion of students who paid attention to the reputation of the institution was relatively low, at 5% in 1980, but it saw a significant fivefold rise to 25% in 2002. It virtually remained unchanged in admission criteria in these two years.
Overall, suitable courses and degrees were by far the most important factors for students considered. The percentage of amenities, social activities and sports facilities and reputation of the institution increased markedly, while the figure for the remaining three factors showed opposing trends.

"Significantly" is a more appropiate word to use in this context. Typically when describing change in statistics we talk about a "significant increase/decrease", "significant correlation", etc. "Markedly" is rarely used in the same context.

Good work, remember to avoid tautologies such as "fivefold rise from 5% to 25%." It will make your writing appear more concise.
