    It was a very good course. I could get a very good knowledge about organic reactions. As named reactions plays very important role in organic chemistry in every exam like NET SET And GATE I get always confused between the named reactions and their reagents but after completing this course I could easily understand the named reactions and the role of each reagent in the named reaction
