Organic Chemistry is an essential/ necessary subject for all biology/chemistry students...Or is it? Majority of the students who I know have taken this class HATE this class soo much. And now I have joined this club. It's not that I don't understand the concepts. The problem is that it's alot of information for one semester... In one chapter alone there are 16 reactions and mechanisms that have to be memorized and they all resemble each other. There are only subtle differences which have to be memorized and one simple mistake like where the charge goes or where the the molecule is suppose to be could make the whole problem wrong....Anyway, my point is that this class should be made two semesters for each part. Its just too much. My advice to anyone who is going to take this class is that you have to eat, sleep and dream the text book when you take it. It is a ridiculous amount of information and it can be overwhelming.... I think I've lost maybe 5 pounds studying for my final...SMH
