And when i try to do questions i almost solve every question …but when it comes to exam i think that i don’t know a single word… i just mark any random option on sheet…can u plz suggest me some tips so that i can improve this
Thnks..

If your foundation is weak you might be able to build the house up to a storey, but then when you want to build up another storey the house collapses. Immerse yourself in reaction mechanisms, MO theory, and interpreting acidity/basicity of a compund

I’ve never taken it, but I’ve been trying to help him through it as best as I can. I like your tip about focusing on understanding and not on memorization. He’s trying to absorb a lot of information at once and I think if he understood it all, he’d do much better on his tests. I’ll have to pass this along to him. Thanks!

I past organic chemestry I and II both with 14 ( thats lik B- to B). But I want to do really good (read: better) on organic chemistry III. Here’s another tip for solving reaction problems: take a good look at reaction maps (search on google) and make reaction maps yourself. They give a good overview of possible reactions you can use.

thanks a lot….

Remember to take regular breaks and get out and exercise. Always begin at precise time you had planned. If you would study for a continuous period, plan a few short breaks into the time.This is the way to have a valuable rest for your eyes and mind. Have a focus, do not think any distracting ideas as you are studying.

I’ve been doing alright so far. We have five midterms and a final exam in the class and my grades on the exams have been as follows: 95, 80, & 65. Our fourth exam was today and it was over alkene and alkyne additions. I know for a fact I did horribly on the exam…I’m thinking my score is below a 50…Thankfully, there is a drop test so it won’t count. But I’m coming here to ask how should I approach this course? I want to understand the basics so that when I take orgo 2 I won’t have as much trouble. I have a lot of extracurriculers that I do, such as working in a research lab and doing clubs, so I don’t always have a lot of time to study. Also, I’ve realized that as the semester goes on, my motivation goes down and I don’t know how to keep it up since topics start to get harder. Can someone PLEASE help me?
