1. Ready reference with experimentals - Easy reading, easy to refer back!! A very useful book to learn from for the beginner and a reference book for the experienced practising chemist. A must have for every medicinal chemist. Getting this book is like getting a lifetime membership for a small upfront fee. I am looking forward to the updates. A few years from now, I imagine this book will grow in content such that I may not need to refer to another book or even read chemistry journals. This book will take care of the upcoming literature for me. I also like the speed consulting part of the book. However, the questions posed are a bit generic. Hopefully, real live examples will be added in the future to make it a super learning experience. Overall, this is an innovative approach to disseminate knowledge in a lucid yet usefull fashion. Great book !

1. Great for visual learners! - I wish I had had such a cool book when I was studying chemistry. Being a hands on and visual learner, this would have been so so helpful with its pictures, pop-ups, videos and really cool widgets- I certainly would have done so much better on my tests. This book is so cool I bought it even though I'm not in school anymore!

1. USE THIS!!! If you need an A. - I bought this book when I was looking for books to help me learn. So, i bought this with others, and I have to say, this is the BEST book i have seen. It is really designed perfectly to study. Great topic coverage, great review questions, and then the test section at the end really helps to test yourself on sample tests, giving you a great sample of what to expect. The toolbox i think is cool, it definitely covers all the topics, reactions, and mechanism. There is nothing missing, it even covered Carbohydrates, and we didn't even cover that in class, but it is great for the MCAT. It even has a glossary for important terms that you need to know. Honestly, this was great to help me study for my test, and i did really well on it. I am definitely going to use it for the MCAT… THANKS!

2. Definitely Worth It - This book is well written and is very appealing. It is easy to use and the widgets make the book interactive and fun. All the widgets and galleries make learning Organic Chemistry easier and quicker to review, all I need is the Toolbox chapter and i am good to go. This book provides an easy way to obtain a perfect score on the exams or the MCAT. I personally have tried the ACE books, but did not like them, they covered minimal material enough to obtain an average grade, not an A or even a B. With this book I can say I performed well on the MCAT and received a very good score. This book is definitely worth it. It's the best on the market.

3. Great book - The book was not plain, or boring. It has a flawless design and is Very colorful and interactive, which makes learning easier. Every topic in OChem is fully covered and it has every mechanism and reaction in a easy to use review setting. The toolbox is great, I used it for my organic chemistry final and I think I aced it, the toolbox was perfectly constructed to provide everything you need to know about a topic on each page. I have bought other books out there, but this is the best book I have seen so far! Great job!

4. Very helpful!! - I have tried many different review books for organic chemistry and this one is definitely the most helpful book I tried. It makes learning a little more interesting and much easier to learn. I used the book to study for my MCATs and I can say I aced that part on the test. Best book ever!!

5. The best organic chemistry book ever!!!! - This book makes learning organic chemistry easy and fun. It doesn't just explain the concepts, they have plenty of practice questions and practice exams that get you ready for your exam. This book can honestly replace your $ organic chemistry textbook. i would definitely recommend this to any one in organic chemistry.

6. Definitely worth it! - I did not think at first there was any book out there that would be able to help in organic chemistry. I was studying for my exams and didn't know what to do. After trying this book I found it very helpful. I love how everything I easily laid out, the chapters are not too in depth and focus on all the key points. The reactions and mechanisms are provided really easily, just by the swipe of a finger, that really help me to study quicker. The graphics are great and the design is flawless. I would definitely recommend this book to all upcoming organic chemistry students, current ones, and MCAT students. Amazing!

1. VERY BORING - It does not make you want to learn, it is very dull and looks like it has been put together by copy and paste from their website or something. There are way better books out there! I thought this book was going to include a large variety of D molecules and interactive galleries. but it didn't, and was a waste of my money. It was not that interactive and was a little boring and I do not recommend it.
2012-05-08

2. Could be better! - I was struggling with Organic Chemistry, and have been studying for a while, before I took my MCATs. I bought both this book some other books. I think this book only provides the information to obtain an average grade and does not go above and beyond to cover all topics. It is very plain and does not integrate interactivity as well as some other book on the market. I would not recommend this book, there are others that are more attractive, colorful and contain all information for all topics.

3. Does the basics - The book does a great job of outlining some of the main misconceptions in organic chemistry. However, it does not cover every topic and reaction, this would be ok if I was settling for a B, but I think there are other books out there that can provide more mechanisms and problems for a more fully comprehensive overview of OChem to get that A.
2012-05-08

4. Amazing Resource! - I cannot emphasize enough how this book takes complex reactions and subjects in OChem, and reduces them to basic steps. Organic chemistry is about understanding what is going on in a reaction, not just memorization. This book takes you from day one to the end of semester two. A must for those just starting their journey into OChem or for the one needing to brush up for the MCAT. The other resources, and the website, are nothing but helpful.

1. BRILLIANT - You don't need to make reviews sheets any more! This does that for you, it contains all the topics on a separate and tells you a review of everything you need to know for that topic. It has sample tests at the end to help you review and test you knowledge, great. Not many books have sample tests. I bought the green one too, just realized that the blue is the toolbox chapter from the green book you have and with sample tests. But, they are both the best books on the market!

2. Worth it! - This book is well written and is very appealing. It is easy to use and the widgets make the book interactive and fun. All the widgets and galleries make learning Organic Chemistry easier and quicker to review, all I need is the Toolbox chapter and i am good to go. With this book I can say I performed well on the MCAT and received a very good score. This book is definitely worth it. It's the best on the market. I used this book and the other Green Book, although, if you are looking for just quick review I would use the Blue one, it is just the Toolbox and is very easy to learn cause every page is a new topic, and it is well put together for a quick review. The green, has more problems and full chapter explanations. I used both and they were better than my text book. Great Books.

3. Great Book - I think this is a great reviews guide to complement any Undergraduate or MCAT OChem class. This toolbox clearly lays out each topic on each page and interactively portrays each mechanism and reaction in an easy to use review. I love how easy it is to swipe from reaction to mechanism and test your self. Of all the interactive OChem books i have tried this has been the best review book out there, it is concise, and has everything you need to study for the final exam or the MCAT. Its Great!
2012-05-08

4. Reaction Toolbox - The book is great. I use the book as my review for my exams and for the MCAT. It is easily structured to provide great reviews of each topic by organizing each reaction and mechanism in a "flashcard" like view for ease of studying. The design is flawless, the graphics is great! Great D molecules. This book definitely replaces your note book, and acts as a review. It really is all you need. Definitely worth it.
