Help with synthetic reactions

Hello everyone

I am a second semester organic chemistry student. My class focuses a lot on
organic synthetic pathways. Most of our synthesis reactions are 5-8 steps.
I've read in our book a little bit about retrosynthesis, in order to help
improve working out the problems, but I was just curious if you guys had any
suggestions to offer on little key points to notice that make connecting the
reactiosn much easier.

Thanks
