Math has never been a strong suit, but I have always been interested in physics and genetics. I aim at neurophysics for grad studies. My math skills have improved and I enjoy it, soI have switched from Bio to physics as an undergrad major, and now I am super nervous. Any words of advice?? I’m a 4.0 student, but I’ still terrified. I don’t want my fear to become a self-fulfilling prophecy as it often has with math in the past.

Try a couple of Math MOOCs while it's summer.
They are helpful.
