MCAT Organic Chemistry, one small win at a time

Structure, isomers, the key functional groups, and how organic compounds are separated and identified. five28 turns MCAT Organic Chemistry into short, game-style lessons, like Duolingo for the MCAT, so you can study it every day and actually remember it on test day.

  • 11,000+practice questions
  • 3,500+flashcards
  • 200+CARS passages
  • Freeto start

What the Organic Chemistry course covers

Organic Chemistry shows up in Chem/Phys and Bio/Biochem on the MCAT. The course is split into units, each unit into skills, and each skill into five levels, from quick recall up to multi-step, passage-style reasoning.

  • Naming, Structure, and Reactivity
  • Isomers
  • Alcohols and Phenols
  • Aldehydes and Ketones
  • Carboxylic Acids and Derivatives
  • Amines and Nitrogen Compounds
  • Separation and Purification
  • Spectroscopy

What you'll practice

  • Stereochemistry, chirality and the kinds of isomers
  • Carbonyl chemistry: aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and their derivatives
  • Extraction, distillation and chromatography
  • IR and NMR spectroscopy

How a lesson works

  • Each lesson is a handful of questions, quick enough to fit between classes
  • Every answer comes with an explanation, plus why each wrong answer is wrong
  • Questions you miss come back later in mistake review, so they actually stick
  • Every skill has its own flashcard deck, already made for you
  • Finish a unit and face a boss: a passage set that pulls the whole unit together

Built to make you come back

XP, levels, streaks and a weekly league against other premeds make it easier to show up on the days you don't feel like studying. The questions are the serious part: every one is original and mapped to the content the MCAT actually tests.
