I can't speak for Computer Science everywhere, but I think you should go for it if you are interested. Even for someone who already knows a lot there is still a lot to learn. The first few classes may be a bit boring, but that just leaves more freetime to learn on your own. There will probably be lots of theoretical classes too, and math.

As for the gender ratio, my class started out with 80 students, of which there were 8 girls. However halfway through the degree now we're down to ~40 students, but only one girl has dropped out. I haven't seen any kind of discrimination against the girls in my class, but since a I'm a guy I can't say for sure.
