Hello everyone,
 
	I am a rising senior studying at a small liberal arts college where I major in Physical Sciences with a focus in Chemistry.
 
	I hope to study total synthesis in graduate school and have started working towards that goal. I have taken p.chem, inorg, and organometallics.
 
	However, I have not taken Ochem. Now, here is the catch, I was the TA for the course and carried out tutorial classes with them. In the fall, I would be taking retrosynthesis course.
 
	I know it sounds odd. However, would it hurt my chance?
 
	## I have 4.5/5 GPA, done 2 summer research projects. I have spent additional 4 semesters doing research. Next year, I am going to do a senior thesis (just took GRE Chem last week!)
 
	Thank you
