What kind of person shouldn’t attend this school?The type of people who shouldn’t attend this school are those with out an open mind.  If u come into the school with just one mind set, you won’t be able to get past it and will miss a lot of opportunities.,What’s the most frustrating thing about your school?The frustrating thing about my school is they are not organized with the important things on campus.  Every university have their problems and down falls but organization is the key to a successful school.

What kind of person shouldn’t attend this school?The kind of people that are not equally accepting of others should not attend this school.  Those who are looking for an extremely strict enviroment to learn in are also not a good match for A&M.  Student activities, though not distracting from academics, are often participated in by students, faculty, and staff. People who are good with time management and prioritizing will do well at this school.,What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?What I brag about most are the school spirit of both current students and alumni, and the willingness of professors to help students succeed.
