I am a student at a mid-tier NLU and I wish to apply for a Master’s degree abroad, specifically in the UK. The only concern I have is that I’ve had three backlogs — two in the 4th semester and one in the 6th semester.
That said, I have a fairly strong profile overall: I’ve participated in and won various competitions and moots, interned at Tier-1 law firms as well as reputed chambers, completed a policy internship abroad, and published multiple blogs and papers.
My main concern is whether these backlogs will significantly affect my chances of getting into a good master’s program. As far as I know, my university transcript does not explicitly mention reappears or retests. Instead, it just updates the date of passing. For example, if I failed a 6th semester paper in 2024 but cleared it in 2025, then the entire 6th semester would be shown as passed in 2025 on my transcript — alongside the 8th semester, which I would also pass in 2025.
Could you please advise me on how this might impact my application? I am very tensed.
My main concern is people taking offence where none is intended.

From what I understand, they basically said there are only two sexes and this is determined at birth. You are born either male or female and you can’t transition into either. This goes against the current views held by gender studies professors and human rights activists. They could have at least have held that there is a third sex and mandated third gender toilets like in India. It seems to be a conservative decision by conservative judges, aligning with views of right-wing figures like Trump, JK Rowling etc.

Also forget about work life balance in that team, most resources are stretched thin on most days and work insane hours.
Peoples paying 50 Lakhs for University but no 500 Rupees for a hotel? What is this? Tomorrow you ask for a partner (ze/hir/hirs) in name of exercising your autonomy. What your think you? A dictator? You think University is 50 cent (a self proclaimed someone)?
Does anyone have any idea?
If violence can be used in Karnataka, then why not in Maharashtra? After all, there's no dearth of idiots and lunatics in India. Each is trying to outdo the other.
I also wonder if girls face this problem?
