I'm doing Edexcel unit 4 at the moment and if it's anything similar then I'm finding it very easy at the moment.

wow, it may be quite a different unit lol, because AQA unit 4 requires so much revision and im finding it pretty difficult at the moment, nearly completed the unit though.

how are you finding organic synthesis?

Not a bad unit, just loads more mechanisms to remember :smile:


The calculations are annoying at first but once you've got your head around them they're a piece of piss :smile:

yeah definitely mate , ive already started some papers and it isn't as bad, i suppose remembering all the reagents etc is probably th most difficult part haha:smile:
Love all of the organic chemistry :dance:, detest all of the maths (physical) :sad:

Almost done it, one of my teachers does Organic the other physical just finished buffers with him and now just revision for his side, need to do 3 more topics with my other teacher but he manages to do a topic a lesson (double usually :tongue: ). So far though the unit has been pretty straight forward, but some tough things here and there :smile:

Theres like 50 to learn and remember :smile: Too much effort. It's just learn it and you'll do fine in the section. The rest is not too bad though.
Ahh - we have two teachers, one for Organic, one for Physical/Inorganic

On buffers atm - apparently they're quite difficult :s-smilie:

With organic we've just finished amino acids, although that was easy as we did that in AQA Unit 1 Biology :smile:
