I do not know too much about the Art and Literature. But I do know that male students have advantages in most (if not all) Ph.D. programs of Science in top US universities, although female students may do better in GRE, TOFEL, and the course exams. With the similar education background and life experience, male students always take the leadership in research which needs creativity and innovation. Most of the aggressive American females focus on Medical Schools, Law Schols, and Graduate Schools, so all females have some advantages when they apply Business Schools. Next time we may ask the b-schools to release the data of the percentage of female applicants in total applicants, so we can get some rough idea. We always claim that male and female should have equal rights. This never hapened in history and I assume it will not happen in the future because it is against the law of nature. Our society will be a patrilineal society as long as the development is powered by science and the female's power is given by male. For all Chinese male applicants, if you fail, it means nothing but you and schools do not match this time; if you win, you are above average in your future classmates. Just my 2 cents and do not intend to offend anybody. |
