| Abstract | Using data on applicants to an Israeli university, researchers examined whether high school course-taking patterns affected gender segregation in higher education. Women were underrepresented among applicants to mathematics-related studies. Mathematical background in high school effectively narrowed the gender gap in applying to selective and attractive, but not mathematically related, fields of study. Women relied on high qualifications more than men when applying to selective and male-dominated fields of study. (SM) |
