advisor went too harsh on the review of the first draft of my undergraduate research project, is the academic world always like this?
is it normal for the first feedback on an undergraduate research project to come back as a red sea? my advisor basically ripped me a new one and was extremely rude in the corrections, is the academic world really like this? i'm feeling stupid... i've never done research before, so i have absolutely no problem with being corrected, but he accused me of using AI even for data from reliable articles that i spent hours reading and typing (i didn't use AI at any point...), plus my idea for the project was one thing and he put a thousand caveats, insisting on making me look stupid/naive and pushing his lab's methodology (which doesn't align with the ethics i wanted for my project...) anyway, i just wanted to know if this is the norm in academia, i confess it really demotivated me regarding the academic environment :(
