I wouldn't worry about chemistry being hard. I was excellent at chemistry, math, mass balances, and mental models. Electrical circuit analysis fried my brain. There is something about the way each of us our wired, some things are easy and some are not.
As both my kids were applying to colleges and getting input from current students, once thing that seems to be common across many engineering schools is the difficulty of their basic chemistry classes. This seems to be a "weed out" course in many schools. Not what I remember from when I was in engineering school long ago, but apparently now it's a thing.

If the OP can swing it, I highly recommend trying to take their chem 101 class at a local community college (ie through a dual enrollment program through their high school) and transfer it in to the 4 year school, rather than waiting and taking this alongside an already challenging engineering curriculum.
