I was recently accepted into medical school, and I am concerned because I have a difficult time steadying my hand. It is due to a minor defect in my basal ganglia. In the past I have had a difficult time using micropipettes in bio and chemistry classes. Is this cause for concern?

If this can be considered a documented disability you might want to check this website...apparently some schools are more open to students with disabilities than others:

You might want to also check with a respresentative from the AMSA, they have specific information on their website about disabilities:

Well, if you are going to be a physician, it shouldn't be. In class though, maybe you should just let your lab partner handle the micropipettes.
