I might have to have my top wisdom tooth out soon and i'm so scared! also, how easy is it to get dry socket?

Dry socket unlikely: The occurrence of dry sockets after wisdom tooth extraction is one of the more feared complications. The breakdown of the blood clot that naturally forms after the removal of teeth can lead to an increase in pain. It can happen after any tooth removal, but is most common after the removal of lower wisdom teeth, not uppers. Tobacco is the most important thing to avoid, plus good oral cleaning after.

Top wisdom teeth: Have to say upper wisdom teeth removal is pretty easy/routine. As your cheek will cover the extraction site, it is less likely that you will get a dry socket. Best advice is to refrain from smoking, carbonated beverages and hard physical activity for the first few days after surgery. Surely your dental surgeon will give some post-op instructions to follow.
