What were your favorite subjects in school?

[Tiptoetamm]

Mine were history, science biology in particular and English. So fascinating, learning about historical events and what the results were and the ancient ruins just beautiful. What was yours?

Its so great to see so many people liked history and science. Frickin awesome everyone. I love learning im learning Spanish now on my own

[nightdrot]

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.

English. 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

[kellytheman]

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.

[Inexpensivefurniture]

@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

[Cherry234]

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

[Cherry234]

I also liked my health classes in high school. Interesting stuff

[Cherry234]

Thanks for MHO

[Justneedtokno]

History. I love learning about the past and the stories. I like Greek mythology they are fascinating and lore that’s fascinating.

[Tiptoetamm]

History is incredibly interesting to me anyway

[Justneedtokno]

Yes it’s very interesting

[MrPickles13]

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

[JustinTimberlegs]

English 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.

[MrPickles13]

I 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.

[888theGreat]

History 4.0 , Sociology 4.0 , Then I took a lot of Science courses, Environmental , Physics, Biology , and Chemistry. I hated math except Algebra. I took electronics , now I hate that. I liked science but didn't take physical science to study gold and silver , etc. I wish now I would have.

[GoldenAxer]

Art and physical education. Maybe physics as a close second.

[GoldenAxer]

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.

[Tiptoetamm]

I enjoy physics to love science so interesting

[GoldenAxer]

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.

[Tiptoetamm]

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

[DonkeyDan]

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.

[exitseven]

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.

[newfreshstart]

i never had favorite subjects in school

i always thought school was a waste of time must of what you learn in highschool

you will never use it again

i reather would have droped out afther middel school & just started working

[Sarairocketship]

Science. Now it's Math. But that's a given. I've always been the best at Math. That's why I capitalize the M.

[Hallo626262]

Hahahah cutie thinks she's good at something.

[Sarairocketship]

@Hallo626262 lol

[loves2learn]

In high school it was biology and math. In college I really enjoyed my honors courses. We had great discussions and I got out of taking the generals.

[loves2learn]

I love learning too 😇

[kellytheman]

History and science. I also liked physical education or bigger, faster, stronger program where we just lift weights and work on technical running to get faster. I mostly did it cause I was in a lot of school sports.

[clampfan101]

I’ve always found scientific things interesting, and math can sometimes just feel like a puzzle.

[clampfan101]

Update: Are you using Duolingo?

[Tiptoetamm]

Yes lol

[FunkyMonkee]

I'm usually faiirly good at math but, for some reason, I'll add up a large stack of numbers several times and even use a calculator to do it and almost CONSTANTLY get a slightly different answer each time!!!

[Tiptoetamm]

@FunkyMonkee that's weird

[FunkyMonkee]

Yeah, I know!! Even stranger is that it only happens when I'm adding up time.

[bambi_01]

I really liked biology, Geography and PDHPE in school. I just love nature and learning about ecosystem and the environment and also how systems in the body work together.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Social Studies. Fuck math. Always has to be the most complex it can be. Always fucking over 9000 ways to write ONE equation or something. Never just stick to one or two ways, no, more ways to do one thing then there are humans

[15_Debo]

every one except for fucking mathematics and physics
But one super fav. is English

[IAMNathanael]

Mine were art, Japanese, English and science

I always dreaded algebra.

[Lliam]

Music theory.
Ancient history.
Ancient art history
Geology.

[FunkyMonkee]

Lunch, Study Hall, Photography, Print Shop, Music, Electronic Music, Sound Recording, T. V. Production, Psychology.

[FunkyMonkee]

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!!

[Playa23]

Exactly the same as yours, weirdly enough.
Also, French.

[Miristheiss]

I always liked History and geography.

Art and Geometry were up there too.

[Rudon00]

I love , love Business Studies and Accounting.

I love marketing and Economics

[Cherry234]

Cool I'm a supply chain management major 😊

[Rudon00]

@Cherry234 What do you mean Cherry234?

[Cherry234]

What? Supply chain management is part of business

[Rudon00]

@Cherry234 Okay. I got now what your saying.

[Rudon00]

@Cherry234 May I asked what you major in did you want to pursue it as a. career?

[Cherry234]

I'm thinking about it. I'm not sure yet. But after I finish college I'm going to look for work in my field of study or something related to it

[Rudon00]

@Cherry234 Great. What I major in I'm happy to be doing it as my career today and contributing to the historic events during this Pandemic as it relates to Marketing Distribution

[Cherry234]

That's great

[Rudon00]

@Cherry234 Yes thanks. I hope you continue to pursue your dreams and do not get discourage

[Cherry234]

Thank you

[Rudon00]

@Cherry234 Yes my friend
