Let's see...
Both women and men have their strong and weak points (if we're generalizing here). I think I've been lucky enough to work with equally amazing and just a few shitty people, from both genders. I honestly had/have the best female bosses (usually happy and always flexible), and my male co-workers are almost as great (laid-back, funny, respectful). I like both dynamics (if and when there is a difference).
As for school, it's obviously a bit different.
In university I took Mass Communication (and Political and Gender) courses. Women took up about 95% of my classes. They were sophisticated, yet geeky, intelligent, fun to talk to and look up to. Sometimes it scared you to do presentations in front of them because they knew what they were doing. Perhaps this is because it was university, but the dynamic was different from college.
In college, I am taking Interactive Multimedia, and the classes are made of up boys (about 90%). They are more immature and haven't grasped the art of control. Some of their comments will bother you (especially as you hear them talking about the hotties on Facebook all day, or the Coors Light Mansion in B.C.), but they don't scare you as much, which gives you more confidence somehow.
I can't say one is better than the other. I get along pretty well with most.
