What the hell...I got a 79% w/o background knowledge of any organic chemistry or biology II. How's that possible? I coulda sworn I missed about half of biology and 2/5 of the chemistry section (because of organic...how the heck would I know how to name a ring structure?). Hmm...I guess a 79% is avg for someone who still knows just as much as he did in high school. Can I get into a pharmacy school with that score?

The test itself isn't that hard. A little reasoning can go a long way, even without prerequisite knowledge 🙂
Oh, and for future knowledge: ring compounds are cyclic structures. Cyclohexane is one structure you will become intimately familiar with in the future (C6H12).

Yay, Ochem.

And the ever popular Benzene ring.

There was a girl in the prepharmacy forum who said shegot in off a waitlist with a 64% so you might have chance. I say take it again once you have the knowledge and really secure your spot. I took it without really studying and go an 89% the first go around, I wanted to retake it but I got my acceptance letter before I did.

My experience with cyclohexane was so extreme that I now use it as a handle, lol 😛
