Preparing for graduate school (organic synthesis)
Hi all! Hope this is the right place to ask this type of question.
After this summer I'll be entering my senior year, preparing to apply for PhD programs in organic chemistry. The beginning of my senior year will have marked 1 1/2 years since last taking any organic chemistry course. I still do synthesis research on the side, so I have retained a good bit of foundational organic knowledge, but I'm afraid of falling behind as I enter graduate school, as my school unfortunately does not offer anything past organic 2 that I could take as a refresher and to learn new complex concepts.
That being said, does anyone have any advice on how I can best prepare myself to enter graduate school? I feel like it would be helpful to have at least some understanding of more complicated named reactions as opposed to solely generic synthesis reagents, but I'm unsure of how to go about planning a routine to help myself.
Or the alternative could be that this doesn't matter and I'm completely overthinking things, but please point this out if it's the case! Thanks in advance everyone!
