<p>From our experience, it seems like alot of girls we know are getting into top tier colleges. My daughter has received numerous acceptances to schools due to her major being engineering. Right now, there is a high demand for females in engineering and I think schools are tending to accept more females in these departments. In fact, we know twin girls in our school that got accepted to Cal Tech and now MIT. In comparison, these girls are without a doubt well qualified regardless of their gender, but boys with similar achievements got denied.</p>
