Mike,
It does matter the order. What you were taught would introduce all forms
of errors.

in the connector from left to right with the copper contacts and the
cable crimp facing you...

B Standard (Most commonly used)
Pin 1: orange white
Pin 2: orange
Pin 3: green white
Pin 4: blue
Pin 5: blue white
Pin 6: green
Pin 7: brown white
Pin 8: brown

A Standard
Pin 1: green white
Pin 2: green
Pin 3: orange white
Pin 4: blue
Pin 5: blue white
Pin 6: orange
Pin 7: brown white
Pin 8: brown

To make a standard cable, both cables sides should be the same. To make
a crossover cable, you crimp one side A and the other side B. You will
also find differences in cable that will cause issues with some cable
ends. Never strip the insulation off of the conductors and make sure
that you have cable insulation inside the retaining crimp of the
connector to relieve strain on the cable.
