1/ I have a meeting with a #student "#advisor" today, and I haven't spoken to one of these in about 4yrs since I had to leave my studies. All I remember from it is how discouraging + pedantic the person was.
So 80% of my (to be had) dialogue with this person will be things like:
I actually am not sure what an academic advisor is...
I guess we call them tutors in the UK? I'm not sure that's the same person as the one you're going to talk to though.

Oh yea a tutor here is someone who helps you with topics you struggle with in class, academic advisors are the people you meet with before you start classes to "hash out" the proper way to do it and figure out if you need any extra classes or whatever
