hahah, you recall that the top science students you knew were women? How convincing!

I have analyzed the records of the World Cubing Association, and there is 1 woman in the top 100 ranked [1].

I have analyzed the ratings of the American Scrabble Association, and there are 6 women in the top 100 ranked [2].

It is well known that there is only 1 woman in the top 100 ranked chess players (FIDE).

I have analyzed the ratings of the European Go Federation, and there are 0 women in the top 100 ranked [3].

But no, I guess I must defer to your remembered impressions.
