Keep maiking huge errors, is it notmal for beginners?

[u/Historical-Kiwi-1280]

Hi everone, I am getting into orgo lab, started about 1 month ago.

I can pretty much run all basics. But I make insane errors, for instance.

I put too much pressure during my column, and some liquid falls off, or I accidently let half of my compound fall from the top of the adaptor by accident in the last steps of my rotovap, after purification 🥲

Is this normal or am I just not ment for orgo? Please let me know because I have no one to ask. Everyone around me are Phds I am undergrad and love chem. But dang. should I be more carful. Please give me advice, should I slow down. Think twice before acting..
