History - or "Social Studies" as they called it until I got to high school. Also English.
Oddly enough, though perhaps not surprisingly, I carried this into my professional life. I have made my living in politics and have done a fair amount of writing. I am also a voracious reader - with the movers, when we moved into a new house, estimating the weight of my book collection at just over 2 tons.
That said, I enjoyed science until I got to high school. At that point, science - beginning none too surprisingly with the teaching of physics - intersected with my arch nemesis. MATH!!
Math! Which I remember disliking all the way back to kindergarten. Never got good at it and it was the difference between me getting a 3/4 scholarship to college and a full ride scholarship.
So, put me down for the "Liberal Arts" as they called it in college. I took my required 1 year of math in college and never looked back. As the doodles and smiley faces in my checkbook register that I use because numbers bore me will amply attest.10 Reply

+1 yEnglish. It was always easy for me. And because I love reading and would write stories in my own time, I always had a something ready whenever we had to write a short story. I barely passed math every year, but I was always in the 95% or more in English. Small wonder I became a writer

Spanish was hard for me for some reason because I got a F in middle I think because I was in a huge class and the teacher was not very good contoling the class. I took German in highschool for 4 years and did oksy but I forgot most from never using it like Algebra lol.

@kellytheman Oh that's funny I took German too. I definitely can not speak it though. I don't remember any of it. In my defense, I was also in the French Immersion program. Learning one additional language was enough
I liked Spanish, math, and chemistry. But I haven't taken any college chemistry courses so I'm not sure I would like it. I hear orgo is very difficult. One of my cousins had to take that class

Yes it’s very interesting

Greek mythology is very interesting, you may also find looking into the overlaps of mythology of other cultures such as the Romans and that. As there are many overlaps which can be very interesting to learn about.
Hope you don't mind my saying

+1 yEnglish as second language, systems engineering (fancy name for woodwork and electronics combined). Physics was interesting but I was terrible at maths.
I did all the nerdy subjects for a good score but if I could re-do it I would pick subjects like music, art or media instead.
Not like I ever put in those scores to any use lol, dropped out of uni anyways. At that time I hated history, but nowadays I would love to study it.10 Reply
+1 yI loved IT, I loved when. We did cross country. As well as that I liked all the sciences as I find them so interesting for different ways like biology for the human body and stuff chemisty I like the reactions stuff. I also enjoyed maths and love history as well just wish we did better topics.

My job is very divorced from these, except for physics, as a software dev. I sold out. I got a double major in computer science and visual arts. I wanted to be an illustrator or storyboard artist for films or games. But I went with the CS job offers instead after I graduated. They paid way more.

I enjoy physics to love science so interesting

I think I'm inherently more arts and humanities in terms of interest. I like people more than things. I don't know why I'm an engineer now. I'm the only extrovert on engineering teams let alone one more interested in people over things. I think my favorite subject if I wasn't being tested for preciseness would be history now.

Yes I'm a total people person. I'm the opposite of materialistic. My ex wanted to get me this crazy pricey ring. I'd rather make memories with him not empty his bank account. Money is stability and these days should save as much as we can
Mine were the sciences particular chemistry, which I went on to do at college along with Biology and Maths.
I also enjoyed Design & Communication, and Design & Realisation.20 Reply3.5K opinions shared on Education & Career topic. I was a science nerd so I always liked science but senior year in high school I had an amazing English teacher that really made me enjoy English literature. so I will go with that.

I took bass lessons for a semester in college and got an A in the class but, when dad died a month after the class ended, I forgot nearly everything I learned in the class! I hardly ever had science in grade school but, I had a math teacher ask me a few questions about the Mobeus Strip and, after just those few questions, she congratulated me on having mastered the Mobeus Strip!! I never got as far as the Klein Bottle or the tesseract. I only JUST found out what they are about 6 years ago!!
