Hi, I'm a second year Biomedical Sciences student.
I really struggle with the maths involved. Things like being given a table with stock concentration and target concentration and having to work out the amount you need to add. I find the units such as pmol / µl really difficult to work with too.
When I'm at home preparing for the practicals, I just don't know where to start on some calculations. In the practicals I have to ask the demonstrators for so much help, some of the demonstrators are very helpful and help me understand a little better, but I don't have enough time to ask them everything. I would love to be able to work things out independently and get the correct answers.
Does anyone have any advice about how to improve and practice my maths? Where I could go/who I could ask for help?
Many thanks.
