They are significantly closer in relation than BYU and Harvard. Test Scores, ACT and SAT, actually intersect by a wide margin.

Lol, Harvard has about a 5% acceptance rate. BYU is around 65%.

Weird you'd compare the two. Way more kids apply to Harvard.

I need someone smarter than me to describe the difference in a percentage.

BYU isn’t even close. Harvard is elite, BYU is a good school.

No. Harvard ≠ BYU and BYU ≠ Utah.

I agree.

I didn’t compare the two, the OP did. It’s a ridiculous comparison.

BYU does not include those that "self-select" against application despite having a preference to attend there. If

These schools play silly games to ensure a super low acceptance rate.

I keep hearing people say we have Alabama expectations, but have never actually

And no... getting into BYU is much much easier than Harvard.

not for your typical football recruit...

Yes, they are extremely different. You think Harvard gets elite football players

Our National Championship did create 'illogical expectations' for me and many

To be fair... our expectations aren’t Alabama level...

Although somewhat exaggerated, this does point out the misalignment BYU has

Not a fair comparison at all! Oral Roberts lets you grow a beard.
