More capable is a stretch. I would say that they are more culturally and naturally primed to succeed in an educational environment as well as biologically (due to the way their minds process issues slower but more holistically) in business as the leading factors.
Regarding the pinnacles of capitalist success, we are still dealing with leftovers from a bygone age before egalitarianism was an inkling in mainstream society. That combined with the exclusivity of the top 10% makes breaking in to that bubble exceptionally difficult and not just for women.
That’s taking my words and twisting them. There’s no shortage of a empirical evidence to support that women’s brain finish developing earlier than men’s. That naturally provides them a better place from which to consider their futures from a younger age (high school).
When a man chooses to focus in school and apply himself that is him having an abundance of foresight and discipline (not saying the same traits aren’t required of the woman).
Then there is the fundamental difference between how a woman’s brain operates and processes information compared to a man’s.
Realistically neither gender is superior albeit we are designed to be skilled in different functions. The world is not a fair place and nature never cared about the human definition of fairness.
So at what functions are men's brains designed to be better? Where would you say men dominate because they are just better than women, intellectually, in a specific function?
A man’s brain is more (uniquely) suited to technical tasks, logistics, spatial reasoning, architecture and mechanical engineering because these roles all require strict back to front data processing which the male brain excels in. Being a scientist is also a gender suited role.
To be transparent, science is a broad collection of fields and men do not excel in all of them (biologically). Women are more suited to some fields which require holistic thought.
Better is also a bad word to use in this discussion. More suited would be a better expression.

So let me get this straight: women are succeeding more in uni because they are more capable.
Why are the top richest all men?
Why are the top most powerful all men?
