So, I sit down casually today to review some organic chemistry. I think to myself, I'll just look it over and it will all come back to me.
My first reaction: WTF? In 10 pages of Kaplan review there were 45 reactions related to Alkanes, Alkenes, and Alkynes.
How much time do I need to spend memorizing this junk? Is there really that much in the way of reactions, or should I just focus on the basics like SN1, SN2, E1, and E2. I had orgo my freshman year, which is now almost four years ago, which means- i don't remember jack.
I am not pleased. Any advice to help me gain efficiency would be helpful!
