Students who complete a year of organic chemistry (lecture and laboratory) at a community college will be given credit for satisfying Chemistry 112A-112B if they pass the American Chemical Society (ACS) Organic Chemistry Exam with a score in the 75th percentile or higher. Note: The College of Chemistry no longer accepts results from the 1994 and 1998 versions of the ACS Organic Chemistry exam.

To those students who take the American Chemical Society (ACS) Organic Chemistry Exam at their community college.

No matter what score you receive on the exam, you are required to ask the instructor offering the exam to write a note on letterhead stationery to include the following information:

• student's name
• exam name and version
• exam score and percentile
• exam date
• name of the college where the exam was taken
• instructor's signature, name, title, telephone number, and e-mail address

As soon as possible the instructor should mail the note to:
Sandy Rehling
University of California, Berkeley
College of Chemistry
420 Latimer Hall # 1460
Berkeley, CA 94720-1460

To those students who have not yet taken the American Chemical Society (ACS) Organic Chemistry Exam

You can take the exam at UC Berkeley (tentatively scheduled for Monday, August 24, from 8 to 10 a.m.). If you plan to take the exam at UC Berkeley, please send an e-mail notification to Sharon Mueller (smueller@berkeley.edu) and check back with her closer to the date of the exam to confirm the date, time, and location.
