VSEPR shapes
Are the VSEPR shapes that we need to know linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bypyramidal, and octahedral? Are there any others we should know?

There is also seesaw, bent, trigonal pyramidal, square pyramid, square planar, and t shape. I hope this helps!

Re: VSEPR shapes
Yes, make sure to be able to differentiate between electron arrangement and shape. While those are the only electron density arrangements we need to know, the number of shapes we need to know is indicated above.
