[quote=Anonymous]At many colleges (Swarthmore, Brown, Wesleyan, Vassar, etc.) male applicants get an advantage over female applicants—affirmative action for boys. One can infer that this is needed to keep the gender ratio balanced. Without it, would females would be admitted at a significantly higher rate than males? Do girls put together better applicants than boys? This seems like the conclusion that many posters here come to. All the boys I know are extremely high achieving though, so it’s hard for me to wrap my head around. [/quote]
