Just curious...has anyone gotten a question for any wavenumbers besides 3500 (-OH) and 1700 (carbonyl)?

Those are the only ones I've gotten on any practice tests I've taken (Achiever, ADAs, Kaplan, Barron's). Just wondering if I should worry about learning other ones.

Thanks!

NH, C-O, C=O, OH, C=C, C(triple bond)C all seem important to me. Maybe even know where an aromatic ring would show up.

Yeah, you definitely need to know more than just those. I was hoping for OH or C=O but I got an NH and aromatic on my test.
