I think something went wrong during the data processing, since if you compare the gender-related data in recent-grads.csv and women-stem.csv, they don't match up. recent-grads.csv also indicates that 56% of all computer science majors are female, which is way off.
I'm looking into the data right now to try to find out what happened, but I'd appreciate a second look at this data set to make sure everything is in order.
