It is more about understanding than just remembering everything. Understanding the concept behind the reactions and mechanisms can actually help you learn faster and do better in this class rather than plain memorizing.

In terms of practice, utilize Sapling as a resource for you to practice synthesis and predicting reactions. Don't treat it as busy work and look up the answers because in the end, it will not help you. Make sure to do textbook problems and focus on the ones Dr. King tells you are the most important! Also, make sure to study with classmates and friends because others may solve a problem differently which will help you learn.

Good luck, you got this!"

"Organic Chemistry is often spoken of as one of the hardest courses you will have to take depending on your major. My biggest advice is to abandon this perspective the moment you start the course. Although it's a mental thing, if you perceive something as difficult, it will be. Be confident in yourself and if there is something you don't understand never be afraid to ask questions. It's important to make your mistakes in practice and find out why then to make those mistakes on the exam."

Try to participate in discussion with your cameras and microphones on as much as possible. Discussion runs much more smoothly and is more fun when there are more people participating. More questions get answered for everyone, too!

Pace yourselves when watching the weekly lectures, and to not try to watch everything during the last two days of the week. This may seem like obvious advice, but it really helps if you go through the material at a regular pace. In addition, I would recommend going over the notes once again after watching the lectures so that you can reinforce the concepts. This also helps you to see what you're learning and think about it, which is different from simply copying the notes from the lecture videos.
