I can’t seem to grasp how to translate the word problems in gen chem to equations. I just blank out on tests. I don’t know what it is. Is it true that orgo is a bit easier for people that struggle in gen chem bc they are two very different subjects that work different areas of the brain?
I can’t imagine that orgo would be easier for someone who struggled in the prereq. Orgo can be a very difficult class (average on my class’s final this semester was a 60%). The first few weeks may even be a review of some gen chem: valence bonding, molecular orbital theory, isomers.
