except the reading comprehension part? I heard this from someone.
Do you agree at all?

What aspect of learning doesn't involve memorization? All of these big tests are essentially memorization. If you understand the material well enough you don't have to rely on rote memorization though.
There is memorization, but there is also application (meaning memorization alone ain't gonna get you far)
what percentage would you say is memorization ?
Really? When I took the DAT, it was 84.9569%. Damn it, I must have gotten pianoed >_<85.6783%

Nailed it 👍How could this possibly be quantified and how would this information help you?

hahahaha feel sorry for you ~

PAT/QR/RC/Organic chem is NOT memorization. Maybe a little of orgo but you will see reactions that are impossible to memorize but you have to be able to work through the mechanism, etc.
Bio and GChem are pure memorization.
so 33.33, repeating of course, percent memorization
LEEROY JENKINS!
Don't mean to argue but Orgo is NOT pure memorization? My orgo class was pure memorization. Drawing products with 10-12 step mechanisms.
I'm going to agree with Doc Smile. A lot of students I heard say Ochem is memorization. If you understand the general concepts of where electrons will go and nucleophiles vs electrophiles, then it really isn't that much memorization. I think the people that struggle with ochem just try to memorize reactions and mechanisms rather than actually understanding what is going on.
Absolutely. There were tons of mechanisms that had like 10 or more steps but some of them were similar. Once you understood what is going on you kind of have the intuition of what should happen.(well at least that's what happened to me)
Yeah. I think as long as you know that -'s go to +'s you can get at least a 50 in ochem. haha 😉
bwahahah. And Nucleophiles always attack a carbon.
And if you have 1/2 a brain and can simply and logically reason where electrons would normally move to.
