[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is this a surprise? Schools would like a gender balance, there are more qualified applicants than seats and top schools can afford to have a slightly easier acceptance rate for males and still get top students. There are more women applying to almost every top program. I am a mother of daughters and my oldest is at a school that is 60% female. I think a gender balance is important for college if at all possible.[/quote] I’m the OP and I guess it’s just a surprise to me because it’s my first time with a senior. I think it’s also harder to see one student succeed over another objectively less qualified applicant when you know the kids personally. You really do learn something new everyday in this process.
