<p>How hard is organic chemistry? Is it harder than physics, calc?</p>
<p>I have taken calc 1 and orgo 1 and my roommate has take physics 140. In my opinion, orgo 1 is a lot harder than calc 1. My roommate has mentioned that physics 140 is also tough but manageable with some experiences of physics in high school. The reason why orgo 1 is so tough is because professors don’t usually follow the book so you would have to attend lecture daily. The stuff mentioned in lecture is only a general concept, so you would have to fully comprehend the concept well enough through other sources to be prepared for the tests. The coursepack is a lifesaver but doesn’t have an answer key so studying in groups is recommended. The tests are hard. You will lose points for even the smallest mistakes.</p>
