    I was surprisingly able to understand just about every topic required for my first exam, EXCEPT Fischer projections. I watched so many videos and read through so many methods/examples on how to draw them, and nothing worked, however, this is quite literally the first and only tutorial I've come across that's actually enabled me to fully understand Fischer projections! Thank you so much!
