It is extremely competitive. It is nice because it pushes you to be a better person, but sometimes school work is very challenging.

The most frustrating thing is being a minority. BYU is in Provo, Utah and somtimes it can be difficult to be a minority. There are times when people are stuck on certain views with being LDS but there are the people who are more liberal (can still be a conservative liberal) and be more accepting of certain opinions.

Sometimes the feeling of jumping into a relationship is annoying. Most people here want to get married and it's common for people to assume you want a serious relationship with them if you act interested as a friend, which isn't true lots of the time.

How expensive on-campus housing and meal plans are.

Probably the most frustrating thing at my school is that, as a Male LDS member, we are expected to serve missions for our church at the age of 18 and those of us who haven't gone are somewhat ostracized. The constant question of when we're gonna go is always coming out of someone's lips when the answer to that question is always, I'm not going to go. There is too much of an expectation of the men having to serve a mission, when in reality it is not required.

Certain exams seem to reflect exam-taking skill more than knowledge adquired.

lack of diversity

The most frustrating thing about BYU is the incessant public display of affection. Especially during the springtime, everyone is romancing about all over campus. This is largely due to the “find your mate ASAP” attitude that prevails in the LDS culture.

The only thing that frustrated me with my school is in your first year you have to do this Freshman Mentoring program. I hated it because if forced you to take First-Year Writing and American Heritage your first year. I had already fulfilled the writing requirement with AP tests so I didn't have to take that class, but I had to take American Heritage. I absolutely HATED that class, so much so that my performance in it was horrible and now I have to retake it eventually. It's the worst class EVER.

The most frustrating thing to me was that your grade is very much based on your test scores. Classes have a lot of students in them and so the grade must be based on your test scores. I am not a very good test taker and so I consequently did not excell in my classes like I would have liked to. That was very difficult for me.
