McGill's admissions system is "gender blind," Mendelson said, and there are no plans to adopt affirmative action policies or otherwise alter entrance criteria to beef up male enrolments. He said nothing would prevent recruiters from targeting particular schools or otherwise encouraging boys who are offered admission to ultimately choose McGill. So far, he said, McGill hasn't felt the need to take extra measures -- as one of Canada's elite schools, it gets the cream of both male and female applicants. That doesn't mean there hasn't been informal discussion about possible consequences, both social and pedagogical, when a particular field is dominated by one gender.

In the latest Country Education for All Mid-Decade Assessment, the DepEd noted that more girls completed elementary and high school than boys did.
