Hello aspirant,

I would like to tell you that the only way to make your Organic Chemistry Strong enough for JEE Examination and boards, is to start practicing the mechanisms and visualizing the chapters.

Further, below are some tips that I can give it to you that would help you to make your Organic Chemistry much stronger for JEE as well as boards examination :

  1. Try to understand mechanisms of the reactions (not all, only important ones). This helps in memorizing similar types of reactions in one go.
  2. Need not cram all the reactions and concepts. Look up for past JEE papers and observe the trends. There must be some reactions in your books that are never taught/asked. They can be left and ignored.
  3. A flowchart of reactions can be drawn on sheets of papers. Those sheets should be looked upon regularly so that the chart gets memorized easily. However I was comfortable with the conventional method.
  4. Keep thinking of reactions and mechanisms in your free time. Helps in revision.
  5. Remove any kind of fear from mind. Useless fear hampers your ability to understand and enjoy the topics.

Further, below are some books on chemistry that could help you to understand the organic chemistry portion much better :

Hi aspirant,

Organic Chemistry which is considered simple by most, is tricky in terms of question asked and needs regular practice. From my end I would give the following suggestions to help you perform better in organic chemistry:

  • Practice all the questions given in NCERT textbooks and prepare short notes for the same in order to quick revision.
  • Prepared a separate copy for all the named reaction and do all the practice questions related to them consistently.
  • If possible buy NCERT fingertips Book, which would give you a vast knowledge about the type of question that can be asked from each topics.
  • Specially practice the interconversion of organic compound as it consist of high weightage in the Board examinations.

Also the book suggested for Organic Chemistry by our experts is mentioned below

  • Organic Chemistry by OP Tandon
  • Organic Chemistry by Morrison & Boyd

Hope it helps!
