ChemOffice has been the greatest use to me in my organic chemistry classes. I have an older version of Chem3D Ultra, Version 4.0 with MOPAC, and a standard version of ChemDraw.

Since my new software arrived one week before final exams, I decided to begin simply by using ChemDraw to incorporate chemical structures into some older MS Word test documents. It is clearly much easier to edit structures and chemical equations, viewing the entire word document without having to open and close separate ChemDraw windows.
