My advice would be to do as many practice questions out of the book as possible. Choose some from each section or find some practice exams and run through those.So, I have a really tough schedule and didnt go to orgo2 lecture for 2 months, how can i learn it all in 3 days before my test on Tuesday?
Can you withdraw from the class?So, I have a really tough schedule and didnt go to orgo2 lecture for 2 months, how can i learn it all in 3 days before my test on Tuesday?

To be honest I think the 30-50% range would be more realistic. No class for 2 months, only 3 days to study. The chances of getting a 70/80 are extremely low. Good news is that this test is only 10% of your grade, however being a pre-med student you can’t afford to be lackadaisical about your science classes or risk screwing up your gpa. Hopefully you learn from this situation.ultimately only about 10% of my grade so hoping to pull of like a 70-80%
Is there not a final exam that covers the same material? And won't the next test also build on this missing material?ultimately only about 10% of my grade so hoping to pull of like a 70-80%
Yeah, as someone who teaches a lot of pre-req classes that part doesn't surprise me at all.edit: I'm not convinced this isn't a weird bit because skipping lecture for six weeks as a premed??
should i be spending most of my time on practice problems or textbook/lecture?
Unfortunately I was being stupid. Im CS and premed and ive had a bio and 2 cs midterms in the last 3-4 weeks so I just spent my time on those but I'm not looking to continue this into the future.I'd set that goal score lower and evaluate what about your schedule is so hard that orgo lecture is the thing you decided to skip out on and correct that moving forward. Even if you get lucky and don't bomb this exam, you still have weeks to catch up on and everything builds on the prior topics more and more and a weak foundation will get exposed quickly. Hope for the best, but for sure plan for the worst.

You accept reality that you can't.So, I have a really tough schedule and didnt go to orgo2 lecture for 6 weeks, how can i learn it all in 3 days before my test on Tuesday?
You had 3 tests in the last month so you skipped somewhere around 15 lectures in another class that is notorious for being a pre-med weedout class to...make time to study? I really struggle to believe this isn't a troll. On the off chance it's not a troll, regardless of how you do on the test, you need to find an adult you trust and ask for every lesson they have about time management and decision making.Unfortunately I was being stupid.

I know premeds like this IRL. Actually worse than this. The thing is, in "real life", I hesitated to tell them "Hey man, you can't go to med school with a 493 MCAT, just save your money and don't apply." Maybe that makes me a crappy person, but I just didn't want these friends to hate me.You had 3 tests in the last month so you skipped somewhere around 15 lectures in another class that is notorious for being a pre-med weedout class to...make time to study?

What I am more worried about is that they somehow pull a B or A out of this process and learn nothing, and find themselves in a worse situation in the future due to not learning the lesson nowI hope they come back and are committed to improving their process so they can not have something like this happen again, but I feel like "drops pre-med, focuses on coding" is a really safe bet
