<p>Would you not recommend that incoming freshmen take organic chem ??
Is it really THAT hard ?? (btw, I got 95% tile on the chem placement test, if that helps answering my question)</p>
<p>Orgo is extremely overrated. Especially Orgo I. The curve isn't even that bad, and exams scores aren't even that low compared to calc/physics. 99% of it is all hype and no substance. If u got 95%tile on the placement exam, ur all set.</p>
<p>And looking ahead, if u do well, I'd consider taking honors orgo II. Great class, a lotta work, but you get to meet the cream of the crop at Michigan.</p>
