Last revision before the entrance examination.
That is actually 2 years of flashcards. It look enormous. I'm so proud of it, it help me revise quickly ! Also I made notes for technical drawings, I don't have flashcards anymore but a piece of paper do the job. Also it's ??/100 days of productivity but miss the count.
17/100 days of productivity: Bake some cakes for my class today. Bought new black pens because this is the time again when all my pen are dying. Spent hours on my oral presentation's power point, made physics notes and exercices.
Chapter 5 - Hess’s Law pt.2: Problem solving // Science Scribbles A-Level / IB HL Chemistry collection
(Hess’s Law part 1 | other syllabus topics)
And here is part 2. Hope I managed to explain it somewhat ^^ The reason I drew all these symbols is to explain the method, but once you get it there is no need to draw them every time!
Organic Chemistry Masterpost
As a chemistry major, I’ve taken sophomore organic chemistry and advanced organic chemistry. I know it’s a highly popular class, so given the demand, I figured I’d contribute some materials I’ve used that led me to success in those classes.
Google Drive:
I have set up a Google Drive folder containing much of these resources I’ve used to study from, and eventually tutor, the class. They are organized in folders by semester.
Summary Sheets
Practice “Workshop” Problems
Practice Exams
Class Notes
Research Papers
Lab Reports
“The Six Pillars of Organic Chemistry” PDF (written by my professor!)
If I end up finding additional resources, I will add more to the Drive. But that should do you well! You can check the original post for updates here.

Best YouTube Channels for Orgo:
Leah4Sci (she was my goddess; check out her website, too!)
Khan Academy Organic Chemistry

The Organic Chemistry Tutor
Other Recommendations:
Organic Chemistry as a Second Langauge (THE BIBLE)
Klein Textbook >>> McMurry Textbook (IMO; my professor assigned McMurry)
Molecular Visions Molecular Modeling Kit
ChemWiki
Really, this class is not as hard as people make it out to be. If you put in the work, it’s easy to understand. Practice problems are your friend. If your professor assigns “optional” homework, do it anyway. My professor did a “mechanism a day”, which is something you should absolutely do on your own if your professor doesn’t! At times it might be frustrating, but be patient. Your hard work will pay off!
Good luck!

20.3.16// I made a poster on all the organic chemistry reactions we’ve covered so far in the year. It’s a great summary sheet which should be useful come exam time!

That’s all for now! Special thanks to everyone who suggested I make this!
I was asked to make a masterpost on websites like Codecademy, so I’ve tried to compile a list of the best (and mostly free!!). In no particular order:
1. Codecademy [x]
I couldn’t not include Codecademy! Just in case you haven’t checked it out, it’s pretty neat. It has courses for learning languages and web developer skills.
Languages: Python, Ruby, Java, PHP, jQuery, JavaScript, HTML/CSS
Extras: Git, SQL, Command Line, AngularJS, Ruby on Rails
2. Code School [x]
This is pretty similar to Codecademy with the in-browser coding and such. It also has additional features like teaching videos. A good introduction to programming languages.
Languages: Python, Ruby, Javascript, HTML/CSS
Extra: iOS development with Objective-C or Swift, Git, SQL
3. Learnaroo [x]
Has tutorials followed by mini challenges based on the concepts you’ve just learnt! It also has some reference pages called “Learn x by Example”. Looks pretty good.
Languages: Python, Java, Ruby, HTML/CSS
Extra: Algorithms, Mathematics, + a bunch of premium membership stuff
4. Learn …
A set of related websites (see below) which have mini tutorials on language concepts followed by mini challenges, similar to Learnaroo.
Languages: Python, Java, C, C#, JavaScipt, PHP, Shell
5. Code Combat [x]
Basically, it turns learning to code into a game! As you move through the levels, new concepts are introduced, so the code you need to write to play the game gets harder.
Languages: Python, Java, JavaScript, CoffeeScript, Clojure, Lua
6. Codingame [x]
Similar idea to Code Combat, but a little more advanced.
Languages: Python, Java, Ruby, C, C++, C#, Haskell, VB … there’s actually loads it supports.
7. Code Wars [x]
This is more for ‘training’ with a language you already know. It offers plenty of practice through challenges, so it’s really good for improving your coding skills.
Languages: Python, Ruby, Java, C#, Haskell, JavaScript, CoffeeScript, Clojure
8. Coderbyte [x]
This offers some video tutorials and challenges for a few languages, plus special courses on specific algorithms and bootcamp/interview prep. You need a premium membership for quite a lot of things, though (e.g. I don’t think you can watch any of the videos with a free membership).
Languages: Python, Ruby, JavaScript
Extras: Algorithms, Bootcamp Prep, Job Interview Prep
9. Free Code Camp [x]
Mini tutorials followed by mini challenges. Has a number of courses on the languages below!
Languages: HTML/CSS, jQuery, JavaScript
Extras: Git, Algorithms, + a bunch of projects to complete
10. Programmr [x]
Has courses to learn various languages through doing little exercises/challenges in the browser, similar to previous examples. Also has ‘zones’ for more languages, where you can find challenges, example code and projects people have shared.
Languages: Python, Java, C++, C#, PHP, jQuery
11. CheckIO [x]
Only offers Python, but I still think it’s really great. You move from level to level, getting challenges which are gradually trickier. Learn by doing!
12. Rails for Zombies [x]
For people who already know a bit of Ruby, but nothing about Ruby on Rails! Each level begins with a short video followed by interactive challenges where you program Rails in the browser.
That’s all (for now!) Hope this is helpful! (ﾉ^∇^)ﾉﾟ
Notes taken during Physics lessons! Exams end in 5 days and I can’t wait!!!!!!
