Brigham Young University-Idaho Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Brigham Young University-Idaho? Why?

Chad

I really can't think of any worst thing about Brigham Young University Idaho other than it is very competitive to get employed there after graduation. Why, because it is such a great place to be employed.

Lora

The credit limit is discouraging. I want the flexibility to explore other career fields while I am at the prime age to do so. I took concurrent college credits in high school, which transfered up to this school and I have mapped out exactly how many classes I need to take to earn my degree. I will not have any room to take any elective courses. College is supposed to be a time and place to explore more about my interests, who I am as a person and who I can become. The credit limit takes away from this.

Clayton

The brainhoney system that they have is probably the worst thing. It is the system that we use to accomplish our homework. Professors are able to post the assignments that are due on the site and work is able to be submitted via the website. However, there are always glitches in the system during the start of the semester, and this can cause some prooblems in classes. The professors are understanding on this topic though and there is some leeway.

Aimee

The worst thing I would consider about my school is many students do not value it's quality education and infact many outsiders do not quite comprehend how much a high quality education and enviroment this university offers.

Celene

The worst thing about my school is the difficulty of feeling at ease with the atmosphere. The school is intensely LDS and very religious. It can be a difficult environment for anyone who is not of that faith. There is a great emphasis on their religion and it is almost encouraged to place Bible study before school work. There is nothing wrong with being spiritual and it is a very beautiful thing; however, it can be difficult to find the courage to really express yourself in a school where you know that you will always be different from your peers.

Miner

The worst thing about my school is clean checks that happen in the appartments once a month. It happens in every appartment here and is mandated because it helps on move out day. This school has three semesters to let a third more students attend so it helps them because there is only a week inbetween winter and spring semester and not enough time to clean. We keep our apartment fairly clean but every two weeks we have to deep clean which is hard between classes and other activities. It's good but just an annoyance.

Emily

I really can't think of anything I would consider the 'worst thing.' BYU-Idaho really is a great school.

The worst thing about BYU-I is that the layouts of some buildings are confusing. You get used to it after a while and can eventually find your way around. There are no competitive sports.

Scott

I feel like the biggest thing lacking from BYU-Idaho is a lack of diversity amongst the students. I wish that there was even more people of different cultures who shared the beliefs that the school teaches.
