Great job! Excellent scores!

Did you have a great background in OC already? I was wondering if you had any tips for OC/GC?

Thanks!

Ya I had a pretty good o chem background. I was a ta for the subject for my college and I scored 99 percentile for the national organic chem test or whatever it is called.. my best advice for o chem is to practice a lot of problems. memorizing reactions and concepts is not a good idea in my opinion since o chem is pretty much logic after understanding a few concepts.

I personally believe you will have no problem getting interviews and acceptances.

Do you mind sharing what resources you utilized and the duration of your study?

I started with chads videos and then used dat / math destroyer and vault and bootcamp mainly. I recommend you do a lot of practice tests and make sure you work on your speed. I was scoring pretty high in qr, on average i would get 37/40 question correct and for o chem and gen chem i would almost always score in 24. My weakest was reading comprehension, i would usual get a 19 on bootcamp. The actual reading comp was much easier than expected and the QR was much hard in my opinion
