Here's how you can get a be Get a Better Grade in Organic Chemistry. Organic Chemistry may be challenging, but that doesn't mean you can't get the grade you want. This is the second book I have read about organic chemistry - and I must say, this one was a lot better than the first. David Klein's intent is to help readers build intuition behind the subject and he does a very good job of doing just that. Really, the first 9 chapters of this book are very good.

I made A's in both general chemistry classes, but I was terrified of Organic Chemistry because I was told so many times that it is a very difficult class. You must learn the material as you go because each new topic adds to the last. For me, just memorizing the material doesn't work. If I can't understand it, I can't memorize it! I am an older, non-traditional student and I have found this book to be a sanity saver! I use this book first to understand the material, then my textbook second. The information is complete and is easily understood. The pressure seems to be on authors to create a textbook that adds mystery to the subject and weighs no less than 20 pounds - full of superfluous information. This fits in my purse and I can study even a few pages at a time when I have a few minutes. The exercises are appropriate to practice what I am given as textbook assignment questions. I started in the summer before class began and worked my way through the first 5 chapters. What a relief to get to class and actually understand the material we are discussing. I love this book! It has me hooked on organic chemistry - and I understand it!! It is so worth the price!! I certainly plan on ordering the Klein second semester topics as well.

The subject matter of the book is one of the bleakest subjects on earth. So I knew going into organic chem class, I’d be in a vulnerable position and face to face with the kind of suffering organic chemistry is known to inflict on humans. Look- You can try to prepare yourself, but you’ll never really understand how bad things can get until you’re drowning in poorly drawn newman projections and faulty mechanisms.
This book is a first hand account of survival. The author pulls you into his world but shows you how to cope. How to move forward and how you can get past the grief and mental exhaustion. DO NOT GO INTO THE JUNGLES OF OCHEM WITHOUT THIS BOOK. YOU WILL NOT MAKE IT OUT ALIVE

Excellent book for organic chemistry students. I used this book for both organic chemistry I and II, and the author is the same author as my textbook. The 2nd language book is a condensed version of the textbook and includes all necessary reactions and relevant information. Its like taking the textbook, removing backstories and case studies, and reducing the page count to only include what is absolutely needed. I used this book before each exam, covering the units that were about to be tested. The book could also be completed in its entirety as a way to review material before the final exam as well.
The book includes chapter by chapter introductions, explanations, examples, and problems with answers in the back to work on. Concepts like arrow pushing, reaction nuances, and mechanisms are covered. There is one book per semester of orgo and I would recommend getting them both. This book helped my understanding of chemistry immensely.

The book is printed out in a very disordered manner, with all pages messed up, which is really annoying, I have to search through everything, because page number 53 is not followed by page number 54, instead it's 78. Unfortunately, the first 40 pages are in perfect order, so I started making notes before I noticed this nonsense.

I bought the e-book version of this and it's conversational and easy to follow and has exercises with answers in the back. It doesn't go into the depth of the main textbook, but it will definitely help to develop skills before taking the class so you're not trying to develop those skills while learning everything else. I'd highly recommend getting this book and going through the whole thing the semester before taking Organic Chemistry.

This book breaks down the complicated second semester topics into a simple and easy to follow format. It makes learning the topics faster and easier. Additionally, after learning the topics it provides plenty of practice to make sure you understand the concept. This is a definite buy if you are in organic chemistry second semester. It is a must have if the lecturers or text book is a little too long in the tooth to get the gist of the topic. It isn't enough to be the only resource for ochem but it's a great primary source to learn the topics then to go on to lecture notes and the textbook to add on to that knowledge.

I knew I would have some trouble with Orgo from the start as I am not too science savvy, math is my strong point. I had trouble with even the most basic concepts at the beginning. This book breaks down topics for people who aren't as great at comprehending text or pictures. I feel like it's basically a "for dummies" collection without it being too simplified and speaks in a formal tone. It's very very simplistic to understand. I think one great aspect of it is that not only does it explain how to do a problem, it also offers along practice problems. I basically relied on this book heavily to save my grade and it delivered. I'm planning on ordering the second portion of it when I enter into Orgo 2. I'm very happy I listened to everyone who said to order this as it was worth it.
Ps. this book is good for simple orgo but if you are taking orgo at a hard school like Rutgers, it really wont make much of a difference. This is just a good intro book
This book is SO helpful with my Organic Chemistry lecture. however, it does not cover EVERYTHING like, conjugations, for example..but the mechanisms are explained really well, and made the concepts easier to understand. I love the practice problems it provides you with and that you DO NOT HAVE TO BUY A SEPARATE BOOK FOR THE ANSWERS- they're in the back of the book-. I highly recommend reading it before you begin the class and also using it while taking the subject. I loved writing in it on the go and the pages can hold an eraser, if that makes sense. I highly recommend it to my peers struggling with organic chemistry, and to you reading this, considering the purchase... it's helpful.
