That's interesting; we never even learned about McLafferty in 2OA3.

It has to do with the new textbook. We also have naming bicyclic compounds, but apparently, we have less reactions in 2OA3, which my TA said means more content to know for 2OB3.

Ah; I've been curious to see what the textbook is like. If it's a genuinely decent one with good explanations, that's not that bad. It's tough, but Orgo is always brutal.

The textbook wasn't too bad, but I don't think the problems prepared us very well for the exam. Maybe it was just me, though. There was essentially no way to prep us for that McLafferty question :(.
