Customer Rating: 

This book is good to read in accordance with a text book. I don't recommend just using this book if you want to learn about Organic Chemistry. Some concepts are not explained as well and my need more examples.

if you are taking organic class and nothing make sence to you, get this book. It helped me a lot to understand the basic thought on Organic Chem. You may still need to read your text book for details specially if your teacher is very much deteil oriented like mine.

Lots of problems here to solve. I would use it with Organic Chemistry for Dummies. I never could get the knack of Organic Chemistry, but itwasn't the book's fault. This is actually a helpful book with some good practice problems.

This is an extremely well done introduction to ochem.I've read a lot of Dummies books, and this is one of the best written. No small feat considering people with PhDs in the hard sciences are challenged to teach at an introductory level.

It's quite simple, so of limited use by the end of the first semester of a 2 semester ochem series. Despite what the title suggests, it's got a brief explanation of the material, and then some questions. It's not strictly a workbook.

I would strongly suggest getting it just before going into ochem to get a brief overview, and by the end of the first semester you'll see where things are heading in the 2nd semester. The practice questions are also good for the level of the book.

Don't expect to get much out of this book if you are at the end of the year and looking for more practice questions. It's too basic for that.
