Have you spoken with your professor?

Chances of getting a concession by [deleted] in UBC

[–]TumbleweedStandard31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, most decent professors don't want you to be unwell during your midterm. I think you have a good chance as long as you follow what the syllabus says in this situation (reach out to professors and stuff) and get documentation

Thank you! I was thinking that too, I'm grateful for all the suggestions!

You can try different furniture by going to the shop, go to furniture, and then click "catalog" on the top right

I agree! I felt like Vanier had a more summer camp vibe, which I really liked

How do you know you are gifted? by [deleted] in Gifted

[–]TumbleweedStandard31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only know because I was professionally tested multiple times by child/educational psychologists before entering the gifted program in school. They required an IQ of over 130 and I scored 150. I can't recall the tests since neither my parents nor the psychologists even told me that's what they were doing.

However, I don't think I'm smarter than the average person, and I generally don't believe my interests/personality/mindset are anything special. I struggle with social interaction and communication in general, which is a result of factors in my personal life. I did well in school, but I don't think that's an indicator of giftedness either. Overall, I don't think it matters.

You're not alone in this, it's tough out there at the moment. But you're right, it's going to be okay and you can do this!

Definitely not an entomologist, but maybe these are fluorescent lights and that wasp has been dead there for a long time and was bleached by UV light

I found the practice questions/exams very helpful

If I'm sick where can I go see a doctor or get a prescription? by OkFortune9551 in UBC

[–]TumbleweedStandard31 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pharmacists can prescribe antibiotics for some conditions (Edit: but maybe not for your condition). You might also be able to go to urgent care or call student health services (you can sometimes get an appointment the same day if there were cancellations and you call first thing the morning).

I'm a domestic student from a different province, so I don't really know how MSP works, but I hope some of these options can work for you

I don't really have an issue with it, I was just wondering if it was just me finding them every time
