Same happens to men in fields like engineering. They’ve been trying to get girls into engineering at a crazy rate.
Don’t worry about your race or your gender. As an admissions counselor put it “focus on what you can control, not what you can’t control”. You can’t control what gender or what race you are, so don’t worry about it. It may help or hurt you, but either way, it doesn’t matter since you can’t change it. Focus on the stuff that you can change, such as test scores, GPA, EC’s, etc.
