<p>Good Textbooks for Organic Chemistry:</p>

<li>Organic Chemistry by Wade</li>
<li>Organic Chemistry by Bruice (arranged by mechanisms rather than the usual functional group approach to organic chemistry. It emphasizes the commonalities of chemical reaction as a means of fostering comprehension rather than rote memorization of functional groups)</li>

<p>Get Klein's Organic chemistry as a second language. It has helped me so much with the fundamentals. I am getting an A partly because of that book.</p>
