This infographic about the top 10 U.S. universities comes to us from the people at Best Essays.

I like the straightforward layout of this infographic; it is easy to get the information and compare the universities.

Overall I give this an A-. I like the map at the beginning that shows the locations of the top 10 universities. The tuition and fees comparison chart that comes next is also nice because the reader can instantly see how all the universities compare in cost. One suggestion I have to improve the comparison chart is to arrange the bars from highest to lowest so it is easy to see how the universities rank without looking back and forth so much.

I like how the next section of this infographic is set up. Each university has the same statistics and data so that readers can compare easily. There is some pretty good data visualization here. For example, showing the ratio of male to female students with colors corresponding to the little stick figures is a nice touch. The charts comparing popular majors also add some good data visualization to this. One suggestion I have is to replace some of the text about when the universities were founded and how many undergraduates there are with graphics. It would be easy to just put a picture of a university being built with the year next to it and a picture of some students with the number of undergrads next to it.

This is a straightforward and informative infographic with pretty good data visualization. It is easy for readers to get the information that they are looking for without reading through tons of text. It could use a few small changes and some additional graphics but other than that it is nicely put together.

This infographic (emphasis on graphic!) was submitted to us by Lloyds Pharmacy, and is kind of hysterical for being so serious.

This is quite well designed, and keeps a great sense of humor about some unpleasant things, like alcohol-related death and sexually transmitted diseases. The graphic representing “The Clap” hiding behind a bush and giggling… well, that’s wonderful. I laughed out loud! “I’m the most common,” it exclaims nearby. Again, hilarious. All the arrows are also pretty great, and the genital warts graph? Inventive. Definitely inventive. And gross.

The colors are bright, which corresponds to the IGs target audience, but it doesn’t go overboard. It isn’t so neon that you can’t look at it. The somber ending is a nice way to finish the infographic–while all the preceding information has been a light-hearted look at some of the negative things you might get into in your first week at university, there is a place for seriousness here.

I suppose the only thing I want more of in this infographic is just a couple of extra statistics–how many university students get the glandular fever (otherwise known as mono) each year? How far does the average UK student move from home for university? It seems to be steeped in statistics early on (which is good) but reverts to more info and fewer statistics near the end of the infographic. Because that’s all I really have to say here, I’ll give this studious infographic an A-!
