Medicine, definitely. Though I think I may have accidentally put Chemistry in the poll. :s-smilie:

History.

A medicine degree and law degree has more prestige than any other degree. Then I'd say computer science and neuroscience.

Maths is a degree where statistically, the vast majority of people taking it are male. Had you said something like “nursing” I would have assumed it was a she.

So what university did they attend?
