That's not out of the norm; roughly half of medical students are women: https://www.aamc.org/data/facts/

The "shortage of women in STEM" mostly refers to engineering and computer science.

That's what I'm saying. It's only some of the sciences that have a shortage of women, and medical isn't really one of them. In fact one branch (nursing) has a huge oversupply of women.
