Hey, I know you aren't really active here rn. But, I am an Indian student (12th grader) and I wanted to ask about foreign unis. I want to study there if I get a chance but I really don't know anything about it. I remember that you got an offer from university of glasgow, when and how did you applied for it? (sorry if i am not making any sense right now)

thank you

Hi!! I am active actually, I just haven't posted in a while ik, but i will from now on.

Hope ur 12th is going well, my best wishes r with you!

(Note: I re-read ur question properly after already typing this long answer out below, so I'll keep it for now)

I applied to universities in uk, singapore and korea, so i can tell u about that.

Uk : there's a website called UCAS through which u can choose to apply to any 5 universities, no more. The requirements might have changed a bit, so do check for yourself, but you'll roughly need good results in 10th and 12th (if u were of the batch that had 10th exams~), strong extracurriculars, recommendations, sats/act scores, toefl scores and a banging personal statement essay. TAKE CARE OF THE ADMISSIONS TIMELINE AND DO NOT MISS DEADLINES

About Glasgow in particular, I got a decent scholarship with my predicted 12th grades, but the cost of living, accommodation and travel were still pretty high for me. Just something to keep in mind. The process of application was the same as I have described. I didn't have an interview for this. I didn't end up going, mind you.

Singapore: expensive :( I applied to three uni s, NUS, NTU and SMU. SMU is, in particular, really expensive. Same procedure as before, but more stress on extracurriculars, volunteering experience etc. In my opinion, this was harder to get into.

Korea: SNU, yonsei, korea uni, ewha women's etc. were on my list. Be careful tho, their admission timelines and schedules are different from ours, so keep careful track of that. Otherwise it's pretty much like the uk admissions.

I hope u have a lot of success whatever u choose to do. Ik 12th is stressful af, but don't worry, you will get through this. Take care, and thanks for the ask :))

I genuinely love uni and going to my classes, I am excited every time during the registration period when I get to pick my electives for the next semester. I love going up to ask professor more questions after a lecture and reading my assigned readings. I study with the intention of remembering everything after the exam. It’s normal to struggle with your studies but studying at university should be equally challenging and enjoyable. I sincerely hope that everyone gets a similar experience to mine during their time at uni. It’s only natural that there are going to be parts of your degree that you dislike or simply don’t care for but if you hate everything about your lectures, your seminars, your readings, maybe you should consider switching majors.

Should I continue doing something which I do not like to do, but which I have done so much that I cannot have closure without having completed doing it all?

Depends. There's no general answer.

How close is completion? U might want to finish things to get the joy of accomplishment.

Why do u do the thing? For fun? For money? To feel good about urself? None of these are wrong, but may change your answer. If ur doing something for only fun and it's not fun anymore, why bother doing it? But if ur doing something because it pays, maybe u should secure a replacement source of income before quitting it.

Closure doesn't really come from actually completing a thing, it comes from feeling like that task is completed. It's more internal than external.

This is your life and you make all the decisions, so i tried to give my opinions on things rather than a straight answer. Hope this helps u.
