About me

I keep it simple. Understand the concept, and not memorize. If memorization is ever required, use mnemonics. Practice as much as you can. Relax between studies. There are no alternatives to studies. And, there may be multiple ways to solve a problem. You may not be able to solve all the problems you come up with; but if you try enough, you will achieve success. My interests outside of school are apps, gadgets, foods, gym, travelling, patriotism, music. Anything that defies me, or any task believed to be a 'NO' for me makes me take up the gauntlet. I believe in what Mr. Steve Jobs said once, "The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it."

Org. Chem. is one of the most dreaded areas in Chemistry. But guess what? It's one of the things that you can learn without memorizing much. You just need the right guidance to make you realize that.
