Shouldn't Br be 1, OH 2, CHO 3, and CH3 4

Br > O > CO > CH

Or is this different because they aren't organized in order?

No, you're right. CHO is 3rd priority, this was an error I recall seeing as well.

Fischer projection or not, that's definitely a mistake. Where'd you get this from?

Is this EK 1001? Just for future reference.

Yep.

It seems like every EK1001 answer posted on here is a mistake.
