I have worked under pressure, some times am more productive working under pressure and some times reverse is the case. I can't really pin what's the cause.

Be calm and don’t rush it. Break your tasks down and work towards them one after the other. As time goes on you will get used to it and you will complete your tasks seamlessly.

I can relate to you. Sometimes I am more productive when I am under pressure. For instance, if the dead line is near, I can finish the task faster compared to when deadline is far away. But sometimes pressure also makes me less creative.
