[C2H6O]

Has anybody had a proper look at organic chemistry reaction mechanisms? I have found them very interesting (and yes this is an excuse to keep procrastinating History, and somehow I have done 0 maths/english this holidays)

Why is bro looking at reaction mechanisms

Why is bro looking at reaction mechanisms

I'm finding it super interesting
keep confusing SN1 and SN2 rn, I thought 1 step SN1 but its the other way around

Side note, do you prefer C2H6O to C2H5OH?

 

[Ybot08]

The guy who made this is super chill, and is also at UNSW doing some chem. how's your flowchart?

a lot of tutors at project academy go to UNSW and are super chill, you might know a couple lol (I know they are big courses though)
what's your flowchart like?

C2H6O but I don’t really mind cause its not really the most pronounceable username anyway

The project guys are crazy cracked
Is your chem tutor who made that flowchart also from project?

It’s in my profile under the resources tab. I feel like it’s a bit messier than I remember it now looking at it as a rusty non hsc student though.

Yep he is, I believe he's doing his PhD in medicinal chemistry right now
Thanks so much!

Maybe I’ll meet him next trimester cause I’m doing chem 1a then

Is effervescence module 7 knowledge? It looks mod 8 but unsure. I believe it was carboxylic + carbonate --> CO2

 

[Ybot08]

bro lowkey carried me, I was rank 60 last year and now I'm rank 3 or smth (2 in last assessment)
really reignited my love for chem

Yeah it’s mod 8 ion testing

 

[Ybot08]

Yeah it’s mod 8 ion testing

for some reason our school decided to do iq1 of mod 8 then mod 7 not sure what they were doing tbh
I thought at least they'd go over NMR

You go project
I recently got given the project stickerssssss ahejdjqjjdhf

Also is this Max?

guys do we need to memorise our student numbers? i heard some schools force you to write yours on exam papers and stuff but my school doesnt do that.
im pretty sure my school gave students their number on the day of the hsc exam on a little paper since they didnt have to memorise (also what if you memorise and remember it incorrectly?)

yeah my school gives us a paper with our name and student number so I never memorise it

 

[Ybot08]

usually the first 4 digits are the same as pretty much all ur friends and then it’s just learning about 4 digits. Low-key not that bad but the do give you the numbers before hsc

Yeah I go to project. I think it’s super chill there and I would do more subjects if I could make the money for it (I trialed classes and it just took me to another level)
btw I’m not sponsored guys haha

our school gives them to us but we have to write our nesa numbers on all our exams so i just memorised it

ive been to the procons and omds they're so good. If it was closer to me I would have def gone, its just impractical with the transport costs added. I might do the trail classes right before leap starts. Hopefully id get max for chem 🥹

I'm pretty sure u do need to memorsie it. Well yeah theres always going to be that fear at the back of people's head that ur going to memorise it wrong but u cant do much about it. I remember for legal, someone wrote another student's nunber by accident. So on two exam papers had the same student nunber and they had to do this whole thing to figure out who's paper is whose. It wasnt too bad tbh but its probably a hassle for the teachers.

IMO most of the tutors are pretty good, depends what class you were trialling to who you'd get. FYI max does tuesdays and thursdays in chatswood, there are a couple of hornsby classes too (including another PhD students' on saturday), and one on saturday in chatswood that has another good teacher. there is a hornsby class on sunday and a chatswood class on sunday but I haven't had them/I prefer the other classes

Wait does this max dude do bio too. I think I’ve done proconnwith him
