<p>Thanks, Professor Bertozzi is teaching it this semester apparently.</p>
<p>I took Chem1A, it was difficult for me. But I want to do better, so it would be great if anyone could provide some helpful tips. Thanks :)</p>
<p>work hard, work smart</p>
<p>people tend to blow organic chemistry out of proportion. It’s not really that hard. Just keep up with the class and clear things up immediately when you don’t understand them. Learning is a bit different because you have to think in a different way and it’s a little more than just pure memorization.
Watch YouTube videos about different rxns, they help you visualize what is actually going on.</p>
<p>How hard is 3A and 3AL compared to Chem 1A in the fall?</p>
<p>hm okay. how is bertozzi when it comes to teaching?</p>
<p>She’s one of the most distinguished professors in the Chemistry and Molecular and Cell Biology departments. You guys are so lucky to have her as your instructor.</p>
<p>go to study groups. i find BioEHS ones pretty helpful. practice is the key.</p>
<p>Do problems/problem sets and old exams, and you’ll be golden.</p>
