It's worse when you realize it AFTER giving the test to your professor and leaving the class.

>> No.10075642

>>10075629
ok i misremembered, it was 89/96, but that's still an A

anyhow:

i missed the very first question (6) points, and lost one point later on (1) while getting all of the other (difficult at that time, to me) ones correct

this was like a year ago on the first midterm of ochem so i dont remember the exact question, but i remember that it was the VERY FIRST QUESTION on the VERY FIRST PAGE and it was INCREDIBLY EASY but it was a multiple choice between four pictured skeletal structures. Methyl R-CH3, Methanol? R-CH2OH, Methyl Ether R-O-CH3, and a ketone or aldehyde or something and i visually scanned it, intended to choose the methyl ether, and chose methanol

just in case my uni sounds like brainlet central (which i have no way of disputing even if i don't believe it to be true) that was meant to be the "gimme" question for all the retards who complained that ochem was hard; the later questions were all multistep synthesis, optimize the reaction, etc.

Never been so happy to get a C in my life. The professor kind of fucked with us too because the practice final was much easier.
