Chemists are old-fashioned in many things (take the whole benzene/phenyl thing)
..because it' easier to draw mechanisms with.
Both drawings are simply cartoons of actual molecules, so it's not a big deal so long as you understand it's a delocalised system.

Yeah, the Kekulé model is much more effective at understanding and drawing the mechanisms, rather than them making you do all those half circles and **** at A-level

fair enough i'm just so used to drawing them with the delocalised circle in the middle now lol
They're both right, but the circle's best only used when you're not drawing mechanisms.
