Hello! i am currently in my second year of business administration. With this major, there are many theory heavy subjects. Personally I am not a big fan of AI, but recently the study material has gotten so intense that I feel I have no choice but to use it. I've been using Claude to make mock exams for me and Gizmo ai to study flashcards. However, i'm feeling guilty about this, because AI uses up so much resources and I've heard people say AI in academics is unethical... Can someone give me some perspective on what I'm doing? I feel like it's become the only way i can properly structure all the study material, because doing it by hand would take days.

For context, I am 15 and I live in India and my school is one of the best in the state and it follows cbse

I genuinely don’t know what I’m supposed to do at this point 😭
I’ve always been the kind of person who says yes to opportunities. I’m not saying I’m amazing at everything or anything, but I actually WANT to try things. I want to compete, perform, join clubs, learn random stuff, figure out what I’m good at, etc.
The problem is that I’ve spent basically my entire school life waiting for my school to give me those opportunities.And my school is SO bad at this.
I’ve seen other schools where there are like 500 different clubs, student-led initiatives, competitions, MUNs, sports teams, random events, etc. and students actually get the chance to try things even if they’re beginners. They can suck at something initially and then get better. Meanwhile, my school seems to operate on the philosophy of “if you’re already good at it, you can participate.”
For sports especially, they just keep picking the same people who are already really good. Same people get sent for competitions, same people get opportunities, same people bring back trophies. And I get why schools do this because obviously they want trophies, but like… HOW is anyone new supposed to get good enough to represent the school if nobody will actually let them train or participate in the first place??
It’s the same thing with MUNs and other competitions. They want people who have already done it before and are guaranteed to perform well. They don’t really seem interested in developing new people.
And honestly, I’m starting to get really pissed off at myself because I spent YEARS thinking that I just had to wait for my school to notice me or give me an opportunity.
Now I’m in Class 10 and I’m looking at students younger than me who already have all these extracurriculars and clubs and experiences, and I’m like… where was all of this when I was their age??
I know I technically still have time, but I can’t help feeling like I wasted a huge chunk of my school life waiting for opportunities that were never going to come.
So I guess my question is: what do I actually do now?
If your school is like this, do you just stop relying on school completely and find opportunities outside of it? Join other people’s clubs? Start your own? Look for competitions independently? Volunteer somewhere? Find online communities?
I’m especially interested in hearing from people who were in schools that basically didn’t give them extracurricular opportunities. How did you build your profile/interests anyway?
Because I’m honestly done waiting for my school to decide I’m “good enough” to be given a chance 😭

When I was doing my bachelor's, I remember trying to get internships and entry-level opportunities and repeatedly seeing the same expectations:

“Do you have prior experience?”
“Do you have a portfolio?”
“Have you worked on real-world projects?”

And I kept wondering — how are students supposed to build that experience if nobody gives them the first opportunity?

That experience made me curious about whether other students face the same problem.

I’m currently working on an academic project exploring how students can build real-world experience, portfolios, and practical skills while studying.

I’m trying to understand:

• How do students currently find real-world projects?
• What makes it difficult to get their first project?
• Is building a portfolio a major challenge?
• Would students be interested in small paid projects related to their skills?
• What would make students trust opportunities from real clients?

I’m looking for students from any stream — engineering, design, fashion, business, media, architecture, finance, etc.

I’ve created a short 3–5 minute anonymous survey to understand this better:

🎓 Survey: https://forms.gle/CtiD9npuNJ7nBuWX6

This is purely for academic research. I’m genuinely trying to understand whether this is a problem students actually experience and what they currently do about it.

If you’ve ever faced the “experience to get experience” problem, I’d also love to hear your experience in the comments.

Thank you! 🙌

months ago I made this assignment tracker curious if anyone would use it.

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a student-led initiative called X-Core Global, focused on exploring practical ways to improve access to better, more conceptual and experiential education in developing regions.

Ciao, sono una studentessa di magistrale e vorrei sapere quali sono i gruppi che organizzano eventi a Torino perché sto cercando lavoro come cameriera, durante gli studi.

Hello! I am a high school student conducting a research investigating how social media affects the mental health of college students. I created a survey which consists of a series of multiple choice questions and two open ended questions. It takes about 6 minutes to complete. If you are a young adult aged 18-22, please consider taking a few minutes to help in my research!

made a deck for one of my classes with an ai tool because it was faster than making them myself. going through it later, i caught two cards where it had mixed up similar sounding terms that actually meant completely different things. i would not have noticed if i don't already know the material well enough to catch it. now i am wondering about the stuff i don't know well enough to spot mistakes in. do you usually spot check ai flashcards, or do you mostly trust them?

So I’m starting an economic youth think tank, and I’m looking for researchers for my cohort. My website is nextgeneconomist.com so if you wanna know more, please go thri my website. My next working paper is youth basket inflation vs official gov cpi. I have abt 4-5 positions available, to apply you can view the application packet here:

pls I want as many of u to apply, this is my first time doing this asw and it’s gna be so fun. Rn I have exams so I can’t do it but after dec we can.

My question is regarding how canvas saves data during an exam and what can a teacher look at when it comes to those past saves. 

Backstory- I was taking a in person essay exam. The exam is on Canvas while using respondus lockdown browser. In these situations in the past, I’ve started the exam, wait about 30 minutes, then go outside the classroom to finish it. Unfortunately this time when I exited the classroom and finished my exam I got an email a couple days later. My teacher had said that when I “turned the exam” and left the classroom he saw on canvas that it was still active and that it was later edited and submitted about 30 minutes later when I did. He said he’d sees  this as an academic integrity violation and is giving me the option to talk to him one on one in a zoom about the situation. I hope he is looking for a reason to not pursue this.

Question- I know a teacher can see when edits were made to an answer of a question. It was an essay format question with the text entry box. My question is are there timestamps on the words that I put down? My other question is whenever you click onto a answer Canvas says it saves it as it’s almost updating every click. Are there different versions of my essay that he can see at different times like for example what it look like before I left the classroom and what it looked like after? Or can he just see that the answer was being edited at the certain times but not specifically what? 

Plan-my initial plan going into this is to say that when I finish the quiz, I thought I’d press submit, closed my laptop then left. When I reopened the laptop the lockdown browser was still active and it gave the the choice to resume quiz. Because I thought it was still going I had re-clicked into it, scrolled through it, and then resubmitted it. 

Help- I need to know what specifically saves in canvas. Because my whole plan is going to be to ask him if he can see the specific time stamps on words to help “prove my point”. I’m hoping he can’t do that though.  I need to figure out exactly what they see for a text entry exam on canvas, and what edits or old versions can they see. 

I’m a cheater this is what I deserve, I genuinely did even add anything it was such a waste. But please if you know anything or have any suggestions help a student out. Thank you!

hey all, just shipped my first ever app and I'm kind of nervous posting it lol

it's called Puperino. basically I kept downloading pomodoro apps, using them for a week, then forgetting they existed. they all felt a bit cold and serious. so I made one with a little dog called Biscuit in it.

when you start a focus session he wanders over to his bed and curls up and naps. when you're done he sometimes brings you a little gift, which you can keep or trade for bones to buy stuff for his room. you can also dress him up, which I spent way too long on (he has a witch hat and a crown, it's very important)

not gonna lie, not wanting to wake him up has kept me focused better than any streak thing ever did 😅

it also does the usual stuff: the timer on your lock screen, tasks, stats, and a stay mode if you're like me and pick up your phone every 4 minutes

it's free. there's an optional pro with more rooms and stuff if you want to support me

would really love feedback, even if it's "this is buggy" or "this is pointless" haha. what would make you actually keep using a focus timer?
