[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not Stem, Not business, not all women Or just has a more equal M/F applicant pool. [/quote] The answer is none. There are far more girls applying to liberal arts colleges today. Most boys prefer larger universities or are interested in the STEM majors - engineering, CS, pre-med. Plus, there are fewer boys that are college ready these days. Ergo, any boy that wants to be a humanities major at a small liberal arts college is going to have an advantage over girls. Because there just aren't very many of them. But a girl interested in engineering or CS will have an advantage over boys at most universities that continue to try to maintain 50-50 parity. It comes down to supply and demand. [/quote] But the boys still need to make the cut. Maybe they go as low as they are comfortable in the filed, but in the end they are admitting more girls, not 50/50. So in the end, more girls are getting in than boys.[/quote]
