Hello Aspirant,

If you want to achieve good marks in Organic Chemistry then you have to understand it like Mathematics because it is just similar to Mathematics or even we can say that just names are different and concepts are same.

To understand organic chemistry you should understand each and every concept regarding different reactions as in maths you have to be familiar with every number and operators(+,-,*, etc.) because organic chemistry is totally based on different kinds of reactions. You should be familiar with all the name reactions like Wurtz reaction, fittig reaction, and so on and then practice more and more question which will increase your efficiency and develop a clarity of that reaction in your mind which is very "must have" thing for organic chemistry because in this field you should know that where to apply which reaction. While solving the question related to Organic chemistry aware of bonds because one incorrect bond between two element will make your whole reaction failed as in mathematics, one incorrect sign can make your full solution wrong because finally you get wrong answer. So just practice it as much as you can.

I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!!

Hello Aspirant,

Organic chemistry is totally based on the learning of concepts. First of all you need to learn the name reactions, name reactions are just like the formulas in mathematics which can solve your multiple problems. In Organic Chemistry with similar name reactions a number of products can be made many times. You need to go through the mechanism and understand the mechanism so that you can understand the whole thing.

I would prefer you to stick with the basic one i.e. NCERT Textbooks Class XI & XII. There is no need to study hard level books now. First clear your concept with NCERTs.

After that you can go for some reference books like :-

• Organic Chemistry by O.P. Tandon
• Organic Chemistry by M.S. Chauhan
• Organic Chemistry by Morrison and Boyd

For more details refer to the link given below :-

I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!!

Hello,

Constitutional isomers are those isomers which have the same molecular formula but different structural formula. It is because of the different arrangements of atoms present in the compound. Different arrangement of atoms gives these compound a different structure. This is the reason why these isomers are also called structural isomers. For example, Butane and Isobutane are constitutional isomers because they have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

Hope this helps!

Organic chemistry is a very scoring section of competitive entrance examinations since if your concepts are clear, you can almost attempt all the questions. You can refer to MTG NEET CHAMPION book for solving mcqs for practice.

Refer to the following websites for knowing more about organic chemistry notes and questions..

Hello Shashank,Look As per my personal experience , Well no one is perfect even being a well recognized jee institute it is not that the entire stuff is upto that mark in their material . There are some flaws their material.As you mentioned your concepts are so strong, So its all upto you if you have a enough time to do practice on Ms chauchan then go for it . (https://nation.com.pk/15-Oct-2018/practice-makes-a-man-perfect)

Note -  As we know practice makes man perfect

Hope it helps

All the Best !!!

Hello there;

Never rely on just one book for preparation of such national level entrance examinations.No book can completely contains the quality of questions which can be asked. But it depends on the time you have for your preparation.I'd rather suggest you must take some coaching material of some institute alongside NCERT to get a variety of questions.

Best of luck!
