so far we're doing stoichiometry which is supposedly one of the hardest parts of chemistry but still I can afford to spend much less time on it than anything else (except for biology, which takes up even less of my time)

Who told you that? NMR is probably the hardest part at the moment. I don't know what sort of questions they'll give you, but if it's anything like the monster question they gave in Checkpoints, then that is pretty tough.

For me, i probably put more effort into chem than other subjects, but that's more because i want to do well in it. As far as set work goes, it's one of my lighter subjects.

my chem teacher treats the subject like a cult saying stuff like "respect chemistry". Also our chem workload is triple every other subject at least

We didn't really get that much work for chem, apart from a few questions our teacher selected for us to work through from our textbooks. It was more self study.
