nice suit

[AlinaGFL]

Best teacher ever...i´m learning more watching this videos than going to class (and i`m from Argentina, so i don´t speak the same lenguage!) You realy can tell the diference between MIT and the rest...

[coolguy110395]

lol, in mit they teach like "students are learning it for first time.". I mean this is all basic. even our high school teachers dont teach this way and this is at UG level. ...

[edscottable]

the best schools have the best teachers. how fair is life. i can't understand shit that my chem teachers says.

[MsAgnosticatheist]

@edscottable Luckily we are in the internet and information age, and you can watch the lectures of Ivy League professors for free online. I believe that information and education should be as freely available as possible in a civilized society. I really appreciate how many Ivy League schools are making lectures available for free online. I really can't say enough how thankful I am for this.

[NTVGAMER123]

wow i would have him as teacher who agree:)

[mariomaruf]

Carl Sagan reference :D

[hermexhermex]

he makes learning handsome.

[JackRobo1994]

lol im only 16, but this is really interesting! but a bit to advanced for tomorrow's GCSE :p

[limetang]

I was considering applying to MIT as an international applicant, until I realised just how much it would cost.

[vk92007]

@limetang Out of curiosity, what is the cost? I wanted to go to UC @  Berkeley, but couldn't afford it

[limetang]

@vk92007 When I checked tuition for internationals was about $30-40k a year, which compared to tuition fees of just over £3000 in the UK (which get covered by loans anyway) I figured it would be too much hard work to get the funding for the US.

[LordNelson87]

@limetang

how about applying for financlal aid?

[jazzybeeful]

basics!

[were455]

thank you MIT!!

[TheThePunkgirly]

im studying this at high school 0.o WTF?

[tf88888888]

@TheThePunkgirly doubt it

[stuckintraffic123]

hahaha "this isnt med school" wonderful

[abdullaah1000]

VERY NICE

[dravidr007]

lol "this isnt med school" 02.10

scary prof

[justinisahandsomeguy]

he is just pointing out the basic knowledge in organic chemistry.I think it`s not in UNI level,isnt it?It`s really easy.Btw,he is always walking in a high speed,so tired for the students.

[EricAngeles10]

lol this is the closest i will get to an prestigious university

[ted77756]

The speaker says, "Do you think, I am going to let you use the 'aid sheet' to copy from the aid sheet to the test. No I am not.

This isn't pattern recognition. This isn't Med School."

My reply, "What about EE?"

I remember 1 time in EE the teacher said, "No formula sheet."

Luckily I played it safe and made a formula sheet.

Ironically EVERYONE in the class made a formula sheet.

Ironically the teacher was tired and everyone used the formula sheet.

In EE we laid down the law.

this guy is a kickass teacher with a unique sense of humor... it seems like it scaped his students, but to me he was great :)

[18921992]

Boss lecture that la

[mpleportals]

MIT people seem to be good at teaching

[allymetoo]

The Numbering System is Greek, not Latin !!!

[baptistic]

seriusly?? woudn't have guessed it...

[f1u2c3k4]

no one dared to correct him in the middle of the lecture haha

[trep83]

So much easier than U Toronto. No wonder MIT ppl are so smart, they're taught like a baby which ensures they know everything!. MIT is great.

[rickhorror]

the student body is comprised of 75% THC

[baptistic]

thc??

[nimpkish]

tetrahydrocannibinol

[Kaoz606]

The active ingredieant in marijuana

[topaboss]

lol how is this solid state chemistry?! I suppose organic molecules could be solid at low temperatures.....

[personwhosnowboards]

am I the only one who didn't understand any of this?

[LeeDiddy990]

much more in depth than my professor explained it and it is very clearly presented.

[celestialhorror]

chemistry suckx

[Maremoskri90]

Fuck school!!:D

[TranscendentLove615]

man i wish i had studied harder and been accepted to MIT my ochem teacher is not nearly as engaging or informative as this guy. Good Job please post more.!

[mehdan2]

dont worry man, maybe if you work hard you can get into MIT grad school..

[evan1sblue]

Although roughly 10:50 into the video, when he was talking about the Latin prefixes, he forgot "octa-" for eight. He went from hepta to non.

[evan1sblue]

Very clear at explaining the material. Interesting to listen to.

[kwikisilver]

nice ,..but is it is what they teach in colleg we study it in school in lower high school in 10th standard...

[dangflo]

is there a video of the chemical reactions of ethers and so on, like the types of rxns they can undergo?

[dangflo]

wiked teacher

[vk92007]

@dangflo Yes I agree, very wicked

[ynnaddanny123123]

noob

[catch22point5]

stanford chemical engineering lectures have more bounce

[youngnam]

thanks for this series. the captions are out of sync.

[sikory]

he's a genius I'v seen almost the complete course until this video and i'm going to see them all (except the things I really don't like, like diffusion and those things) but most of the lectures are so informative and well taught.

I really love this series just like the 8.01;8.02;8.03;5.111 and 5.112 courses

[polarbear60]

Holly cow, what a great teacher!

[msjankido]

very helpful
