Pie Charts
Pie charts are charts that display data out of a whole (100%). They are important for us to understand how parts relate to a whole. The slices display how much each category contributes to the total. Even without values of the percentages, the audience can compare the sizes of slices and instantly spot differences. People understand slices of a pie as a universal visual language.

College can often be described as the best time of your life, but it can also be the most stressful. A 2025 survey evaluated stressors for college students. Academic world, financial concerns, relationships/social life. family responsibilities, and health/well-being were rated out of 100%. Academic workload was the highest stressor ranked at 40%. This could be because of deadlines, time management, etc.
Design
A pie chart was the best design for this type of dataset. This is because it is supposed to rank percentages. This chart is also in descending order, so it is a lot easier to understand than perhaps a bar chart. The pie chart allows for easy comparison of the causes of stress in college.
