About Course
Organic Chemistry (OC) is defined as the branch of chemistry, originally limited to substances found only in living organisms, dealing with the compounds of carbon.
- What’s with all the hype?
Most science majors would have to undergo an (OC)Â module which has been proven to be a very daunting and challenging field to excel in. Students often struggle to even pass the subject. Organic Chemistry can get progressively tough especially when the core foundation is not strong.
- So why should you take this course?
This isn’t a typical organic chemistry course where I explain to you concepts just for you to memorize. I’ll make you understand the most basic principles and show you how simple questions are when you’ve got your foundation solid. In addition, I’ll drop some tips and tricks for typical questions so that you have it all covered! At the end of the course, you’ll be able to take your exam in absolute confidence and get superb grades!
Who this course is for:
- Anyone and everyone who is interested! This is a basic course that covers the underlying principles of organic chemistry for the high-schoolers or even the pre-meds!
