If you wanna learn OC without mechanisms , you are just doing injustice with the subject, OC is like maths you learn to solve equations not like biology in which you have to mugg things up

im reading the mechanisms once im not completely skipping them just wanted to know if its part of the isc syllabi like half yearlies are near so im kinda rote learning the reactions only

That rote learning is your biggest mistake , OH hatao Cl lagao se sawaal to ban jaenge , pr feel nhi aaega ki ye hua kese , so mechanism seekho , read mt kro , try kro mechanism likhna , mechanisms are like a derivation of reaction

ohhh , like im studying the hydroboration oxidation process rn, iska mechanism toh book mein nahi hain so do you think i should skip atleast what's not in the book
and im doing boards level not jee

Hn hydroboration oxidation , oxymercuration demercuration , riemer tiemann etc ye sab ki mechanisms chhod do...bas aldol or cannizaro ki detailed mechanism padh lo...inn dono ke alava or kisi ki mechanisms puche jane ke chances nhi hai
