I'm thinking of applying to the FH as an international student, read some mixed reviews and honestly wanted input from the locals to get a better Idea.
Just general things like part time jobs, internships, leiser activities like clubs, sports gyms, dating life etc
Would you recommend coming here?

So I know, I'm not doing mentally fine at all, self diagnosed depression and adhd on top of all that I'm epileptic. I'm not doing well on other fronts as well unemployed at 23 taking extra years to finish my business degree which is now useless because of AI and on top of that due to some reasons I cannot live in India long term due to which I'm desperately looking to escape but it seems the world has collectively gone to shit.
So I was in all these deep thoughts suddenly for just blink of a second thought of ending it all came to my mind which I snapped out of real quick. Now I know it might not be a big thing but with everything going on right now in my life I don't want to even think about that, I want to live and have a great future maybe have my own family and a house decent job yk the usual stuff so any kind of advice is welcomed that might help me.
Thank you if you read till here

Hi everyone, I think Hindu deities and epics are really misinterpreted and not correctly presented especially in east Asian media especially manhwa/manga/anime. I'm thinking of starting a series based on an epic true and accurate to the source. But I'm not sure which one to target, mahabharat will be too long and you also need to know at least the basic hinduism and ramayana has been made many times already in multiple forms. Any suggestions? would love to get support from the community.
Hi everyone,
I’m preparing to register for the November 2026 CFA Level 1 exam and I’m looking for some advice/experiences regarding disability accommodations.
My Situation:
Condition: I have Epilepsy. My main triggers are high stress and sleep deprivation—both of which are huge factors during CFA prep and the 5-hour exam window.
History: I haven’t had a seizure in a long time (thankfully), but I have a 10-year paper trail of regular neurologist appointments and consistent medication.
The "Problem": Like many epilepsy patients, my EEG and MRI reports are "normal."
Prior Accommodations: I never requested special treatment in high school or university. However, as we all know, the CFA is a completely different ballgame compared to 2-hour uni finals. The sheer duration and pressure are much higher risks for me.
My Questions:
Has anyone successfully received accommodations (like extra time or off-the-clock breaks) for epilepsy despite having "normal" scans?
Does CFAI weigh the 10-year history of medication and appointments heavily, even if I don't have prior "exam-specific" accommodation history from uni?
What specific "functional limitations" did your doctor focus on? (I'm planning to have my neuro focus on medication-induced fatigue and cognitive slowing).
Any tips on how to word the personal statement so CFAI understands that "stable" doesn't mean "risk-free" under exam stress?
