Please think twice before coming to BYU! I thought I was making the right decision by coming here, but I've been miserable for these two years and am finally transferring elsewhere. If you do not devote your whole life to attending class, reviewing notes, and spending enormous blocks of time in the library, you will most likely get bad grades. It is not college. There is nothing to do in Provo, unless you like to go country line dancing or play board games. And I have never met a more close minded group of people in my life. It is amazing to see over 20,000 young adults follow rules so strictly and blindly accept their rigorous conservative backgrounds. And if you are a female in any program not traditionally female, professors and other students can make you terribly uncomfortable. Not to mention sunday school, relief society, and sacrament meeting speakers; who share how important it is for them to either have or be a wife that stays home with children and is not able to pursue higher education or other aspirations. If I had to start college over, I would definitely not come back to BYU. In fact, I could be graduating early here, but I cannot stand another day here so I'm getting out!
