Universities should accept equal numbers of male and female students in every subject To what extent do you agree or disagree

In my opinion, men and women should have the same educational
opportunities. However, I do not agree with the idea of accepting equal
proportions of each gender in every university subject.

Having the same number of men and women on all degree courses is
simply unrealistic. Student numbers on any course depend on the
applications that the institution receives. If a university decided to fill
courses with equal numbers of males and females, it would need enough
applicants of each gender. In reality, many courses are more popular with
one gender than the other, and it would not be practical to aim for equal
proportions. For example, nursing courses tend to attract more female
applicants, and it would be difficult to fill these courses if fifty per cent of
the places needed to go to males.

Apart from the practical concerns expressed above, I also believe that it
would be unfair to base admission to university courses on gender.
Universities should continue to select the best candidates for each course
according to their qualifications. In this way, both men and women have
the same opportunities, and applicants know that they will be successful
if they work hard to achieve good grades at school. If a female student is
the best candidate for a place on a course, it is surely wrong to reject her
in favour of a male student with lower grades or fewer qualifications.

In conclusion, the selection of university students should be based on
merit, and it would be both impractical and unfair to change to a selection
procedure based on gender.
