How do I make organic chemistry easy and enjoyable?

I am junior in college and have basically made A’s in every class except for chem. 1 and 2. Chemistry makes me completely miserable, but I need to complete Organic Chem. 1 and 2 with A’s in order to get into med. school. No matter how hard I study, read, or work problems, I can’t ever seem to make an A. The labs are the most monotonous experiences I have ever had and I can’t ever do good in them either. Most other classes I can enjoy and make them fun and interesting but this stuff just completely makes my head hurt and puts me in a horrible mood. Suggestions and answers for making it simpler, more interesting/fun, how to get an “A”, etc. etc. would be appreciated.

   I did better in Organic Chemistry 1 and 2 than I did in General Chemistry 1 and 2. The professor of Org. Chem. said that a lot of times students who had a hard time in Gen. Chem. did a lot better in Org. Chem.

   Talk with the professor to see if there is anything that they can recommend…items that might help the information come alive…the compounds…etc.
