Michela
Chad's Ultimate Organic Chemistry Review
He explains everything so coherently! I wish there were more practice problems at this point in the course, like more R and S, chiral, achiral, and meso compound questions. If there was a longer extra quiz to really practice these that would be great because I would really like to perfect them.
Misty
Great course!
Easy to follow explanations. I was struggling with acids and bases and now have a much better understanding.
Nicholas
It is amazing!
Chad does an amazing job explaining topics and making sure everything is easily understandable. I like that he is concise and covers the main importance of each chapter.

OChem Review One Week In
I have learned a lot from Chad in a short amount of time regarding the subject matter presented. His explanations are clear and concise, and I feel that my time spent learning from him will prove valuable as I continue my preparation for my standardized exam. Like anything else, practice problems are key to solidify ones understanding of the material and should be used in conjunction with this review. With that said, I feel confident that I will take away from Chad's course(s) a solid foundation of the subject matter needed to excel on my future exam.

USE CHAD TO GET AN A+
Hey guys, so I found out about chad a few years ago when i was in high school and trying to get ahead. I used his videos for him to explain concepts and problems i could never understand in class. Now I am currently taking Organic chemistry and I havent been to class in over a month or two and only watch Chads videos and i still get almost perfect scores on the test. Chad is great. USE his videos and take notes.
Gerardo
I wish I would known about this in Ochem 1
I'm in the second part of Ochem this semester and these videos and reviews have helped me to fully understand and reinforce what I have learned in lecture with my professor. I wish I would have known about this resource when I was in Ochem 1, I would have got a much better grade and would have actually understood the material. Thank you for all your help.

Great videos but needs a little bit more
Hello Chad, Thank you for your wonderful videos . I got As in both Gen chems with your wonderful videos. I have started to watch the Ochem videos recently . They are helpful but I think it gets a bit confusing in stereo centers definition and it is a bit fast paced. The Markovnikov and anti-markovnikov are not clearly defined and unclear. Overall, I was happier with your General chemistry videos but still thank you for helping students. Your Sincerely , Peter :)

Great help review for exams, simple understandable terms, love the quizzes after each section-great help.
Zachary
Great practice and refresher.
This course is great for extra practice and to use as a refresher. My professor likes things done in a particular way, which I am sure most do, so I have to be careful to make sure I still follow things in his nitpicky way, but as far as predicting the product and recognizing reagents this course is the best.
Amy
The best preparation course
I think he is the best aspect of the course. The lectures were well-organized and clearly presented. Chad's Ultimate Organic Chemistry course is the most necessary and beneficial to students who wants to do well in the subject of Organic Chemistry.

Awesome!
You saved my college chemistry career. I used your lecture exclusively and stopped going to class. Just did practice problems from our text book and with your lecture videos I excelled at something I never thought I could be good at. I recommend you to every person I know that is taking chemistry. You are awesome.
Clayton
It is amazing!
I love how Chad explains everything, he makes it so much easier to understand. I prefer more the classroom setting for his teaching than the one white background and his head. The classroom setting seems more engaging and makes me feel as if I was in the room. Overall, great experience,
Jung
Love this course !
The best way to brush-up your Ochem foundation at a really low price !
Thuan
Thank you!
This course managed to let me understand the theory behind reactions and understand why electrons are moving where they are going. Their is a reason why things are happening. It's not just a reagent and a final product. Chad was able to help me understand the mechanism which ultimately helped me do the reactions I needed to learn. Knowing the mechanism and knowing why things are moving the way they are is the difference between an average student and a great student. Thank you, Chad.
Clark
Helped me pass Chemistry
Chad is by far the best teacher I've met for Chemistry. He takes complicated material and explains them in funny and simple ways so that they can be easily understood. In Chad's Ultimate Organic Chemistry Review it's nicely set up so that you can pick the area that you may be struggling with and watch awesome videos that clearly explain and teach the material better than any teacher I've ever had could. After the videos there are helpful quizzes for practice with explanations for why the correct answer is what it is. If you need help in just about any portion of Chemistry, there is no better choice than Chad.
Uyen
VERY INFORMATIVE AND STRAIGHTFORWARD
I couldn't ask for a better study resource for general and organic chemistry. Believe me I took these two courses with the best professor at my university and I got straight A+ in both courses. Chad's videos are very clear, straightforward, and informative. His lectures are professional but super easy to follow and understand along with the help from the chat forum. However if you want a quick respond from him, I suggest you to send him an email. He would try his best to help you fully understand the materials. I highly recommend you buy a subscription, which is super cheap comparing to other resources, to help you practice after each videos. I find it very helpful.
Katherine
An Answer to Prayer
This course has been a phenomenal help! The way you explain the concepts makes them easy to understand and remember because your goal is understanding. The many examples throughout the lecture helps solidify the concepts, as do the practice questions. Although Organic Chem is a subject that tends to fly over my head (and at least a few others), you do well in not making it complicated, but rather simplify it and ease students in understanding this foreign language. In terms of function and aesthetics, the website is great! Une grande aide! Much thanks!
Wyatt
Great Material and Explanations but Could Use Extra Questions
These videos and questions are super helpful in understanding the material. Also, it is fantastic that we get quiz questions afterwards to test our knowledge. One suggestion I have, and I know it would be a little extra help, but I think having more questions would be helpful. Maybe there could be a pool of questions the quizzes could pull from. For example, if a quiz is 7 questions long, there could be like 15 to 20 questions that quiz pulls from. That way there are different questions for each time you take the quiz, or for at least the next two times you take the quiz.
Abigail
All of them
I absolutely hate chemistry...I have never been good at it nor have I ever really enjoyed learning about it. I am currently taking organic chemistry to get into grad school and I heard about these videos from a friend from high school and I wish I had known about them earlier! Your videos are so clear and helpful. I have never understood chemistry so well. It is still incredibly difficult, but the way in which you break everything down and approach every lesson with ease truly helps me understand things. Having the quizzes and notes is also extremely helpful! Thank you so much for taking the time to make these! I wish more students knew about this resource because it would help so many people!
Samuel
It was the best!
Chad's Organic Chemistry Review is absolutely the best!! Chad explains complex topics very clearly and concisely and he's honestly the best teacher ever!! His study guides for reactions are really clear and his slides help you follow along, take notes, and learn while watching the videos. I would never have done well on any Orgo test without him teaching me the material, because he is a so much better teacher than my college professors! Plus I love his quizzes which help you further master the material! Chad the only request I have if for you to please have quizzes in your Biochemistry course when I take Biochem next year!

There is little to go wrong with chad. Best $$$ spent. Would do it again if i had to. Chad was a better professor than my actual org professor. Due to Chad, i destroyed my ORG tests. Chad sometimes talks slow, thankfully there is also a 2x speed button on all the videos. Just a tip.
