<p>^Orgo has very littel to do with Gen. Chem.<br>
At least in my D’s UG, Gen. Chem was her easiest science class. She ended up being an SI for 3 years working for Gen. Chem. prof which resulted in no need to prep. Gen. Chem for the MCAT at all. D. never had AP Chem., was not offered in her HS. She ended up with 100+% (extra credits) on every Gen Chem test
Orgo, on the other hand, was one of the hardest and extrememly time consuming classes.
She has said on several occasions that Orgo had practically nothing to do with the Gen. Chem (which apparently she mastered to the point that anything in Med. School that had used Gen. Chem. was always her favorite academic material)</p>
