Got called gay for sitting cross-legged with one hand in the air as a male

I wasn’t even trying to act zesty. It’s just a Habit I naturally have. But then one of my family friends called me out and said: “why r u sitting like such a f*g?” And everyone at the table laughed. I understand that it was just meant as a joke but it really ticked something off in my brain. Now I can’t stop hyperfixating on the incident and wondering if my subconscious way of sitting is somehow a reflection of my brains sexual chemistry. I hate ppl and gatherings that do this to me *sigh*

Genuinely what is up with these incompetent ass academic advisors?

What is my tuition paying for if they can’t respond to emails on time (after 15 business days mind you), and help me sort out a simple registration issue that would take 1 second to fix but could ruin my whole career if not addressed on time. Genuinely got some of the laziest people working here.

Did uoft med force students to defer or give them the option?

I recently discovered that the school actually over OFFERED this year. Not sure how this can even happen when things like a waitlist exist… but anyways, we know med school admissions are a joke. My question is though, did they force certain people to defer or did everyone get the option to defer and the school hoped enough ppl would choose to do so. Just curious!

Also! Won’t this affect ppl applying in the upcoming cycle since some spots will already be reserved for ppl who deferred?

Does an international development research job look bad on my application?

It’s thru the government of Canada so it’s not like it’s some random fraud company where u pay money to go on a trip abroad. However, I’ve heard that it can give white saviour complex. Lmk ur opinions.

Having transcript sending issues as a transfer student

I’m transferring to a different university next year and chose for my transcripts to be sent at the end of the winter term. Grades were released over a week ago but they still haven’t been sent. I’m not sure what to do.

Transfer student having transcript sending issues

I applied to transfer to 2 universities. I requested my high school and year 1 university transcripts through ouac. It says that my high school sent my transcript at the beginning of April. However, one of my universities is saying they didn’t receive it. I’m not really sure what to do jn this case as I already spent a lot of money on these transcript requests and I’d expect ouac to be the most secure/easy way to get this done. Has anyone experienced this issue? Please help.

The deadline for transfer students to submit their supp apps is today at 3pm. Therefore, they can’t release decisions for first year entry before this time as it could lead to prospective transfer students changing their answers based on those of first year admitted students.

Ppl on this sub always say that you need to have some standout ecs to make you appealing to adcoms. But I literally don’t know how I can achieve this since I don’t really have any interests or standout ecs. Just some “cookie cutter” ones. For reference, I come from a low SES background and while this isn’t an excuse I definitely think it’s contributed to where I am today in the sense that my parents didn’t have too much money to spend on nurturing my interests or putting me in niche activities. I also had to spend a lot of time working rather than possibly pursuing more interesting endeavours. I feel so inferior compared to people playing this game man.

Preferably unsweetened (artificial sugars are a really bad trigger for me). I think dairy based powders can also trigger my symptoms. If anyone has found one that has both done its advertised benefits and not triggered their uc, please lmk!
