O Levels Organic Chemistry: Common Conceptual Mistakes by Students
15
Aug
Posted by: sean in: Chemistry Guidebooks , Chemistry Notes & Tips
During the Organic Chemistry Mastery Workshop 2009 in July, we noticed several misconceptions by students that surfaced again for this current batch of GCE O Levels students, just like the previous years’ batches.
Just a quick note on 2 common errors (mentioned in Up Your Chemistry Grades Now ) that you would need to be aware of, so that you can avoid them at all cost.
Hope you will find this information useful to you.
PS: Do leave me a comment. I would love to hear from you.
