The transition from A-level practicals to undergraduate labs can be daunting and challenging. But it is also exciting to tackle new scientific concepts and gain independence in completing each experiment as your skills and confidence increase throughout your time at university.
You may be concerned about the idea of spending a full day in the lab, using new equipment, machinery and apparatus for the first time and having to become more independent.
