[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The male and female pool at SLACs is definitely not equal. But rather going in circles on that, think about “boy” majors like computer science and econ. These majors are already oversubscribed so, no, SLACs don’t want more male computer science and econ majors; don’t expect a gender boost there. [/quote] So you think that the boys at Amherst or Pomona or Oberlin, wherever, are less qualified than the girls there? I call BS[/quote] Rather than try to make sense of your assumption-laden inanity, I’ll say this: this thread is — or should be — about whether it is easier for males of specific majors, and occupying particular spaces on the continuum of their overall, respective gender candidate pool, to get in — vis à vis females. Since the vast majority of applicants at any of these schools are “qualified,” that there conversation is a big nothing-burger. So of course I don’t, by definition, “think” anything about it. Nor do you.[/quote]
