I received an A in this class, and it was a lot of hard work. It would've been impossible without this solutions manual! In addition to giving all the answers and a brief explanations for some of them, each chapter has a small quiz at the end which are great study tools. Also there is some vocab at the beginning of each chapter which always seemed to find its way into my exams! I have not given this manual five stars because there were some errors and inconsistencies between the questions in the textbook and the answers in the manual. And I'm not talking about different editions, but rather just plain old mistakes. Like another reviewer said, they need a better editor.

I benefited from this book immensely. If you are taking this class do yourself a big favor and buy it. If you are going to do something do it right and working the problems is the key. I got it for around 30$.

the solutions manual is as thick as the text, and that sucks to carry around, but is so very nice to have access to full worked answers for every question posed throughout the chapters, as well as carefully crafted explanations for said answers.
This is expensive but you get what you pay for. and that's a whole lot of organic chemistry.

the condition wasn't great. as i was using the solution's manual to check my solutions, i realized there were many missing solutions, in fact some pages were duplicates. it looked different than my friends' books, which were new. i suspect mine is fake.

good book
very informative
helps the text lots
practice problems helpful

As any solutions manual, it doesn't provide the how or the why for each problem. Although I think certain problems COULD be explained better than just giving the answer, I won't hold it against Bruice. She wrote an amazing textbook, so if you've read that then you should hopefully be able to use the solutions manual only for checking correctness as opposed to explanation for a majority of the problems. I highly recommend the textbook though!

This book saved my life and my GPA. Don't hesitate to buy it; it is worth every penny.

There was a printing malfunction. A couple of pages repeated themselves. Other than that the book was in really good shape

The book without this is useless.. This manual made a difference in mee... i passed my two courses of Organic chemistry with A.....!!!

My purchase arrived promptly and was in the condition the buyer described it to be. Pleased with product, no complaints.
