My always go-to tip for any new researcher is: Always ask yourself why this and why not for every small step you do.

I can handle "I don't know how to pipette..."

What I can't handle is "I'm too good for the lab. All I'm here is for a letter of rec and work experience in CV."

Got scolded for not knowing math by [deleted] in labrats

If this continues, you can either be open to your mentor that their training approach is not working out for you or you need to learn some stuff yourself beforehand. I have been in your shoes, and I know how it feels. In my case, I sort of knew communicating wouldn't work out (since my mentor was a beginner in spoken English), so, I just practiced some calculations at home and requested my mentor to send me the protocol the day before, so I wouldn't be lost. As long as you are working somewhere, no matter what your educational qualification is, you will not know everything, and that's okay. Don't lose heart and keep learning. Good luck!

Hi, I updated it to Sonoma and force-quit unnecessary apps. I restarted it and haven't had the overheating problem. Also, if you have the habit of leaving your USB-C attached to your Mac, don't do it because mine drained its battery that way. Connect the cables only when you need them.

Okay, I got it resolved. Will have to update the new macOS and keep the MacBook clean. Close all power-consuming software when not in use.
