In order to discuss the different factors that influence students' graduation planning, this paper use the Wilcoxon rank sum test to analyze the collected data. The rank sum test does not depend on the specific form of the overall distribution, and can be applied without regard to what kind of distribution the subject is ,and whether the distribution is known, thus making it more practical. Therefore, this paper mainly uses R language and SPSS software to program and analyze the data.Further,by comparing the analysis results of different methods, the results show that the most important factor influencing students to choose further education is the desire to have a decent job,Under this results,we provide reference for schools to offer related courses.
