A2 Chemistry - Structure Determination

I am having a lot of trouble answering questions on Mass Spectrometry and Infra-red Spectroscopy for the AQA A2 syllabus.

I was hoping that someone has any tips on how to answer questions or any good websites which HELP!!!

Many Thanks.

This website has quite alot of practice questions on A2 chemistry including structure determination.

I think the best thing for all sorts of structure determination is just practice. It does suck, but eventually things become ingrained and you naturally remember numbers which come up and you can work out fragmentation patterns. IR is largely a matter of learning vibration frequencies, I think you may get given them for most A2 courses though.
