Organic Chemistry
What are the differences between the following courses?

Introductory Organic Chemistry - Chem 2E03

Organic Chemistry 1 - Chem 2OA3
http://registrar.mcmaster.ca /CALEN...08/crs_250.htm

CHEM 2E03 is not a prerequisite for further courses in Organic Chemistry.
I'm guessing that 2E03 is supposed to be easier?... it sounds like one of those watered down courses.

I have a housemate in each course, 2E03 is ridiculously easy compared to 2A03. The E does mean engineering, but in this case that's deceiving.

also 2E03 doesnt have labs
I took 2OA3 last year .. its hard but if you are thinking of going to med school or grad school (I'm pretty sure) you need an organic chem with the lab component
