Intro to biochem sucked big time, even as a biological chemistry major. It was a class of memorizing 60 different reactions and how they are all intertwined.

I had the same problem with Organic. It's like drinking from a fire hose - nothing complicated, just too much info too fast.

I'd rather take organic. Organic was easy stuff - maybe because it was more conceptual at my school than just brute force memorization.

SO true. We have our first test coming up. I thought it was just MS, NMR, IR, etc. Turns out we have all that + eleventy billion reactions that we're to cover in the two classes before the test...

Are you in my class? We're giving an exam on NMR, IR, Mass Spec and all that fun stuff tomorrow.

Have fun with that. I have to retake it after last semester. My advice is to stay at least a day ahead of your lecturer, and start studying for midterms hardcore at least two weeks prior. It's pure memorization; not concept like Orgo was.
