The Doctor on: Patience? I can't wait to learn patience!

A major problem facing young mormons these days is "frickinBYUitis" Basically, BYU has decided to test all of us- they repeatedly postpone the final, glorious day in which some of us get accepted and the vast majority get denied. This is, supposedly, to teach us patience. The theory is that any potential student who has not killed themselves (or their competition) Deserves to be accepted. Good theory, no? the final-final deadline is supposed to be a week from yesterday. lets cross our fingers.

  1. Actually, BYU's lowest acceptance rate to date was over 60%, which is decidedly a majority. Even a a major drop in acceptance rate would most likely still result in the admission of a majority of applicants.

  2. I'm talking size wise. Stereotypically, the smaller people do better in school. If you total up the weight of the people accepted, and the weight of the people denied, especially if you factor in the weight gained shortly after getting denied by eating WAAAY too much chocolate ice cream, more of people is denied than accepted.
