[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a female, her chances are high at a good univ. for CS, except caltech. They don't do holistic admissions. I know a kid who got 1580, straight A student in magnet, 5s on APs, but a male, so, this kid won't have an easy time of getting into top rated CS programs.[/quote] Her chance maybe “higher” than boys at certain schools but certainly not “high”. [/quote] My DD is a sophomore, not in the above specialized programs. She is also interested in CS. How much of an advantage is it being a girl for admission process? She has not taken SAT as yet, but has straight A's, taken 3 AP's in freshman year with 5's and is involved in leadership activities outside school in CS (leading a chapter of girls who code club, participated in app challenge and so on). What are her chances to get into top schools?[/quote]
