    You should have done " learn chemistry from start to finish" like the videos on physics and maths.

    I worked as a chemistry tutor at my university while doing my Chem degree.
    Students would often ask us who the best organic chem professor at our school was. Our response was always, “it doesn’t matter who you take because the professor you are really learning o-Chem from is David Klein.”

    Agree with the OpenStax recommendation and Klein (Second Language, vols I, II). I used Atkins when I studied physical chem (I think I've still got the edition I used like many eons ago, the one with the blue ink in water cover).

  • @lalitasharma6687

    My personal recommendation for
    Inorganic :- Housecroft
    Analytical :- Vogel textbook is Enough

  • @uppermoonzeroo
    @uppermoonzeroo 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    Yes organic chemistry as second language, is the best organic chemistry out there
    Organic chemistry was one of my weakest subjects after I read the textbook my grades in organic chemistry class completely shifted
    It’s so weird the writer knows how to insert the information into your bran.definitely the best organic chemistry Textbook

    • @zahlazizi
      @zahlazizi  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh totally! That book is why I love organic chem! It made the class so much more palatable.

  • @PranavViswanathan
    @PranavViswanathan 3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    mostly agree with you! my personal recommendations are
    Genchem-
    Chemistry by Zumdahl (super good at taking the basic concepts and connecting them to more complex things)
    OR
    Principles of Modern Chemistry by Oxtoby (SUPER rigorous, really fills in all gaps for genchem)
    Orgo-
    Obviously Klein’s Orgo as a 2nd language is great but if you are the type of person who needs to read a book then:
    Clayden’s Organic Chemistry (goes pretty heavy with MO theory in much of the book)
    Wade’s Organic Chemistry (less MO theory but still a solid text)
    Have yet to do anything past orgo yet but that’s just my 0.02$

    • @itsme5625
      @itsme5625 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Clayden is very very good, but if i want to just brief some topics, imma go with vollhardt, its very simple but not so detailed, but usually I will check with clayden if im stuck on something

    • @migueldominguez907
      @migueldominguez907 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think Clayden is a little hard for a undergaduated class. I would read Wades ochem first and later clayden if i want more information

    What would be the best for a Physics student? I mean, I have no problem with the math and even less with the physics, so if a book would approach these subjects with some level of rigorosity, I wouldn't care (actually I think I would like it more).

    • @renatoh.santosdasilva3080
      @renatoh.santosdasilva3080 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Also, I would be learning by myself, out of curiosity (and maybe if I were to teach it some day, since my course offers the possibility for me to prepare to teach basic chemistry as well as high school physics).

    • @oscarbear7498
      @oscarbear7498 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Best book is to find a project you like and learn the chemistry there, then return to the book 📖 to learn, that way you find value for learning vs just memorizing stuff because maybe you need it for a test.
      Studying for a test is a garbage way to study and just build a hate for the subject.
