Grad school nerves

I start at the end of the month. Panels with professors and past students made me begin feeling nervous!

What were the most challenging parts of your program? I heard most people in my cohort feel nervous about research and readings and internship. For me, I look forward to research having been prepared to read and write a lot in my undergrad and sort of knowing what I would like to focus capstone research in. I know just time management will be a struggle with this. My internship doesn’t feel so daunting to me but I have some nerves being the new intern on site that I know are normal.

I feel most nervous about all the presentations, possible role playing scenarios, and such. Were peoples’ programs mostly group presentations or individual? This is one skill I still don’t feel comfy in and am considering beta blockers to help me out! The nerves take over everything and inhibit my ability to focus on learning!
