I personally didn’t learn much from ochem either. I memorized everything and was done with it. However, there are some concepts that still explain things like reduction of carbonyls etc in alot of the reactions in BIBC 102. Im not sure if that was in 140B though… I think it was chapter 17/18… it’s been a while since I’ve touched that book so I dont remember the chapter exactly. Especially when you get to TCA Cycle, you can either memorize every detail or you can sort of see the next molecule’s structure based on the carbonyl reduction or reactions involving glycerol and lipid biosynthesis etc etc etc. So i guess if ANYTHING haha, just go over some reactions in ch 17/18? But I thought the Principles of Biochemistry book did a pretty good job explaining it so it may just be unnecessary.

Yeah, actually if thats the case, then just stick with BIPN/BIBC haha. Honestly, not much from BIBC will be needed for BIPN. BIBC is the biochemistry in the mitochondria and cell, while BIPN is a larger scale physiology obviously so you dont have to worry about that.
