Reviews
Honestly, I did not go to office hours at all and still did pretty good in the class. Just make sure to get all the reactions down and the NMR/IR is pretty straightforward once you get the hang of it. Do as much practice as you can
Professor Ow is great.
Material is difficult.
Exams felt easy, especially compared to Reilly.
I think this class was very well organized. The midterms and final were fair. The discussion worksheets and practice exams were very helpful.
