Hi all.
All my classes besides math are a breeze right now but what is starting to worry me is my chemistry lab class. I am currently in the first lab class for chemistry series and I feel pressured when I have to do my lab in class. I get a sense of nervousness similar to that of taking a math test. I have an A in my gen chem lecture class and I can breeze through these problems like it;s nothing. I show all of my work when writing my chem lab reports, which slows me down tremendously as I am not a math person and I tend to solve chem problems with faster unorthodox methods. I am contemplating doing my lab experiments in advance as it is the only way I will not make little mistakes during lab, but then again it will take away from my lab experience. I will also be starting research soon, which worries me even more.
With that said, are there any premeds who had undergone a similar experience and managed to rebound in some way? What do you recommend I do? Thanks.
