[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s because there are a lot more female applicants to these schools than their counterparts. To keep a gender balanced environment, their acceptance rate of male is higher than that of female. All lacs brown Yale and a few other ivies. Opposite in the case of mit Georgia tech cmu scs, uiuc cs, etc. there you see a lot more male applicants [/quote] In CA there is a large gender gap between engineering and life sciences. Even in Silicon Valley there are not many girls going for engineering or physics and it is far easier for them to get in. It flips for life sciences, with girls far outnumbering boys so boys have an easier time being admitted. Business, economics, political science are relatively balanced.[/quote]
