[QUOTE="Dral, post: 22312788, member: 240896"] Focus on your learning and memorization style. I'm very visual so physics and Ochem were kinda natural to me. Ochem synth reactions were like geometric proofs to me (kinda fun...don't hit me). I remember getting the ochem ball and stick model set because we were told to get it. I made an EtOH model out of it and put it on my desk at home and never used it again. I remember seeing people at the exams using them and wondering why in the world they even ever needed them. I was ignorant to the fact that people can have very different learning styles and way of thinking. Example: I always told myself I was good at math because I got decent grades in it, but it was because I had to work my ass off. In reality I suck at math (other than geometry). If you are not a visual person, I feel these courses may take more work (just like pharm took A LOT of extra work for me since it's so non-visual). Try to come up with alternate ways to memorize things. I'm not sure what to tell you to do specifically. For me, in pharm, I used a lot of colored highlighters and came up with visual stories about things to help. [/QUOTE]
