I went into high school chemistry and science. You might have noticed I did not spend all my time on organic chemistry. I decided it was time to review everything again, and this time get my hands on my ACS Organic Chemistry practice exams before I sat for the actual exam.
It was time to figure out what I was going to study and practice. Since I had taken many other chemistry practice exams in the past, I knew a lot of the questions already. The missing topics were from high school chemistry, and that seemed to be my weak area.
After seeing some of the topics on the ACS Organic Chemistry practice exam I decided to check the curriculum. I found that there were many topics that were not covered in high school biology. I wanted to know how they were preparing me for the real thing. I did not want to go into another year of college with no knowledge of organic chemistry.
My focus was on content. Since the content was missing from the test, I needed to find ways to add my own content and information to it. I researched and found that the ACS Organic Chemistry exam has been taking great strides to make sure they are offering the content they need to prepare students for the real thing.
They added over two hundred new materials to the test. They also offer a calculator and practice problems that will help you understand the test and understand the concepts that will be tested on the real exam. This should help students familiarize themselves with the different types of organic chemistry and their reaction pathways. These students will be better prepared to succeed on the real exam.
My focus was also on price. I did not want to spend any more money than necessary for an exam that was only an hour long. I discovered that the ACS Organic Chemistry exam is available online. Students can purchase the exam, take it at home, and then review the material whenever they have free time. This will save them time and money and make it possible for students to complete the test as quickly as possible.
My focus was also on the questions. I did not like the questions on the exam. I found a lot of the questions are very difficult and just don’t add up.
The professor tried to make the problem seem easier by filling in the formula for the compound, but the combination was already written. I found a problem where the problem was a non-linear equation, but there was no way to solve it. This gave me a headache and I did not get my answer.
My focus was also on the inconsistencies in the questions. I found a question that was a picture and another that was a chart with numbers. I found a question that was similar to a physics question but made it seem like I knew it.
I found that I do not know how to solve these questions. I felt that this lack of understanding was holding me back from doing well on the test. I found that the questions on the exam were confusing. The professor could have just answered the question, but he did not.
TheACS is working hard to ensure that the ACS Organic Chemistry practice exam is true to what will be on the real exam. By including questions from the real exam and many new examples, I believe the teacher hopes that students will learn a lot more about organic chemistry concepts. They are making an effort to make sure the exam is easier to understand and give you a good understanding of how the real exam works.
