Who here has taken organic chemistry, or is facing it in the future? As a biology major, I'm required to take it, but it's horrid. I made it through one semester, but I'm retaking the second one when the new semester starts. Is there anyone around who actually *liked* it?

I kind of wish that I could like chemistry. The hard part is understanding it. It doesn't help that so much of it has to do with doing things in order, which is quite difficult for me being dyslexic. But I sort of liked chemistry at first. Just as it's gotten harder I don't like it.
I want to try to take organic chemistry next quarter. Maybe I'll like it more than general?

I am a genetics major, and I am very glad I didn't have to take analytical or organic chem! I like chem, but biology is my first love :)

It is fine. I had a semester of it and I will have 2 more years of it starting next year. I like all sciences in general.

I am a university student majoring chemistry.We studied organic chemistry in the past two semesters.Yes,it's difficult to learn,but it's very useful.So I had to try my best to learn it well.I don't like the theotry very much,but the organic experiment is interesting indeed.Maybe I can say"I like it."^_^
