Chronological or anti-chronological CV for applications?

Hi everyone. This may be a dumb question but it is actually confusing me a bit.

TUM says "Bitte laden Sie einen chronologischen und tabellarischen Lebenslauf hoch." I already have one in which the first row is my most recent academic achievement (e.g. January 2026-May 2026) and the ones following are the achievements before the ones above (e.g. December 2025; January 2016-November 2025).

But then, when I google "chronologischen und tabellarischen Lebenslauf" I see that when some places ask for "chronologischen" they mean you start with your oldest achievement and make your way down to the most recent — BUT I also see that other places use "chronologischen" und "antichronologischen Lebenslauf" as synonyms, so I'm slightly confused. I would upload my anti-chronological CV, but I want to be sure.

Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks

Habe ich mit 38 IB Punkte (1,6-1,7 Abi) Chancen, als non-EU in BSc Molekulare Biologie oder Biomedizin zugelassen zu werden?

Hey!

Ich möchte mich für mehrere Bachelor Biomedizin und Molekulare Biologie programs bewerben, bin jedoch ziemlich besorgt und weiß eigentlich nicht, ob meine 38 IB Punkte (laut der Formel zwischen 1,6-1,7 Abi Punkten) dafür wirklich genug sind. Als non-EU Bewerberin würde ich ja auch in meisten Unis in eine non-EU Quota eingesetzt, die schon extrem reduziert sind (z.B. 8% aus 30 gesamten Plätzen). Weitere Infos: mein Bio (6) und Mathe (5) waren beide SL und ich hatte keine weitere Wissenschaften in IB, aber schon in meinen nationalem Curriculum. Ein Paar Empfehlungsschreiben hab ich auch.

Ich will und werde mich bewerben, aber ich würde gerne eure Meinung wissen, v.a. von die die sich vorher dafür bewerben haben. Wenn MolMed oder Biomed für mich wirklich unrealistisch ist, wäre ich auf Empfehlungen zu ähnliche Studiengänge dankbar.

Sorry for any grammar mistakes in advance. Danke!

What truths should prospective students know and expect before living in Germany?

Hi! I’m applying for a Bachelor’s in Germany. I’ve seen several subs of people from different backgrounds and of different professions say they regret coming to Germany, while others seem very pleased and happy with living there.

For all of you who have or are going through university in Germany: What are some truths and crucial things prospective students should know and expect before moving to Germany?

This is a space to drop both your positive comments and best truths, as well as reality checks, warnings, tips, advice, etc!

Hi everyone! Not sure if this is the right sub but I’m desperate

I got my first pair of headphones (Skullcandy Hesh Anc) at Christmas and I’m so sad because for like a month now the earmuff began falling off, like the leather layer that was inside that gap from the headphones just started slipping out until it reached this state.

I don’t know what to do, I’ve tried pinching it back in with a toothpick, with my fingers, and jt ends up worse and more out than before. I’d like to fix it since it was a precious gift from my dad and I want to take them with me to uni!

I’d appreciate any advice. Thank you!

EDIT!!! The leather layer part that is still hanging in there for its life seems to be “glued” to the plastic part of the headphone, I tugged at it a little bit and it “ripped off”. I wish I could add an extra photo! Is this still fixable?
