CHEM10090 - Organic Chemistry Opinions

Hi,
I am just wondering if anyone has any experience with the module. I am thinking of taking it as an elective for sem. 2.

Thanks

If you're doing science its a core module for semester 2 in stage one.
Did it last year. Went into it coming from Introduction to chemistry in stage one.

I struggled a good bit and ended up passing by compensation. If I studied a lot more and kept up with the work from the start i would have gotten a better mark.
You have to do a group presentation. It was worth 10% last year. Pat Guiry and Mike Casey. Both pretty good lecturers.
Casey leaves blanks in his lecture notes that he puts up on blackboard so make sure to go to his lectures.
Guiry writes all his lectures during the class on the overhead projector.

It says nothing about a group project thing in the module descriptor. https://sisweb.ucd.ie/usis/W_SM_WEB_ENR_MOD_CORES.SHOW_MODULE_DESC?p_term_code=201100&p_subj=CHEM&p_crse=10090

That's an page - it doesn't exist in that format anymore, different module co-ordinator. See the way it says the term code as 2011 in the URL?

This is what you're looking for.

That also does not say anything about a group project/presentation.

LifesaverNiall is confusing the module with another one.
