False

If we take the numbers of admitted male and female applicants altogether: Men in Department A: $2,000\times 0.5\times 0.6=600$ Men in Department B: $2,000\times 0.5\times 0.3=300$ Admitted male applicants: $900/2000=45\%$ Women in Department A: $100\times 0.6=60$ Women in Department B: $1,000\times 0.3=300$ Admitted male applicants: $360/1,100=33\%$ This is because female applicants tend to apply in Department B which is harder to get into.
