Which compulsory subject do you enjoy doing most, and tell me why you like it. Mine is English, so what's yours?

Out of those I'd say English. I've always loved having English at school and I'm just overall good when it comes to languages, but pretty stupid when it comes to math and stuff like that.

Maths because I'm somewhat good at it. English is kinda boring and Science I just can't do.

Definatley not maths, it just confuses me, even though I'm in the top maths group so I must be pretty good at it. I'd say, probably English, cause I enjoy it sometimes, but I have the most evilest English teacher ever. >:[

I'm a long way out of compulsory education, but my favourite was always Maths. I just really like the structure of Maths in general.

English; just not the Language section. I love Literature. I'm somewhat good at it as Im in top set :}

Maths I cannot stand.

Science Ive never been able to understand WHY I need to know it. I never remember any of it.

English. My least favorite is Math. I excel, somehow, at Sciences. Despite not retaining any knowledge of the courses I have taken.

Prove it with Science! English literature is the most boring subject known to man, and Maths is annoying.

I will have to go with English. My English classes tended to be focused on literature and literature is just the L33t pwnzors.

Gah... why do people do that(the leet speak... .geh... no I am dirty *goes to wash up*).

I love English and I can't stand math even though I'm pretty good at it. Science is something I'm willing to try even though I suck worse at it than math.

History. You forgot the best one dammit.


Science is the best of these three with English second and Math a very long off last. I hate math.

Vermachtnis
05-03-2007, 08:48 PM
English, because I like to read and write and junk. Math in a far distant second, I kinda good in Math and I do it very fast and can just blow through it really fast. Sciences bore the snot outta me.

I always liked English because I am naturally good at it. I had a really good time studying English Language for A Level much more than Literature, even though that was a bit dry going at times. David Crystal, the guy who wrote the workbook we used, is doing a talk in my local area about his new book, which is all about how the English language developed. I might go to that. God, I'm so boring... :eep:

And English in lower secondary (grades 7-9) was fun, since we wrote stories based on The Worst Witch and Stand By Me. Yes, we got assessed on fanfics! :p

I really liked math, but I liked English and Science too! I just tried to be good at everything...maybe coz my mum was teacher!!!

I guess Math, all three were my worst subjects in school.

Maths is easiest because it is an international language. Like love :love:

I kick ass at all of them, so thats my answer.

Math but I might have gone with history had that one been presented. English is so damn boring and backwards. "This is how to use the language now let us read a great piece of literature which breaks all the rules and structure we just talked about." Wait...what? My best example is "The old man and the sea"

Luara
05-03-2007, 09:40 PM
English, cuz I dont need to study :D and science its easy too... math..go away... ~.~ it would be easy too , but.. I had to study..so...nah

05-03-2007, 09:43 PM
History. You forgot the best one dammit.
History isnt compulsory. Though it is one of my favourite subjects too.

You forgot Religious Education though, as thats compulsory. It is here anyway :(

05-03-2007, 09:44 PM
I always liked English, hated math, and—rather bizarrely—dominated in science. Actually, one of the only awards I ever got in high school was for best in science back in ’00 (the other was equally as queer: photography). Maybe I just cheated and didn’t realize it or something, because I know jack :skull::skull::skull::skull: about science now.

Science.
I am a Biomedical Science major after all.

Which compulsory subject do you enjoy doing most, and tell me why you like it. Mine is English, so what's yours?
My favorite subject is English because it can broaden your vocabulary and inspires creativity. Also, with English you have more freedom and you don't always have to stick to formulas and rules.


P.S. You didn't tell us why you like English., Hazzard.

bipper
05-03-2007, 10:04 PM
grammar not English. An I will choose this only if you include creative writing. Which I love.

Yamaneko
05-03-2007, 10:11 PM
English is the easiest one to bs. I respect math and science more because at least you have to know what you're talking about. As a history major, given those choices I would choose the sciences. I like finding out new things about our world and universe.

Nominus Experse
05-03-2007, 10:49 PM
English, though Science has the curious intrigue mentioned by Yams

It was always science. Especially biology. I love finding out what makes us, us. Maths suck hardcore for me, I don't understand it at all. And I'm finding English wasn't as bad as I thought anyway, I can write a mean short essay. xD

English. I love it! It's actually pretty enjoyable for me. I have Chemistry, and it just confuses me. Plus the fact that my teacher practically has no idea what she's talking about makes me hate it more. And math ... well ... I'm okay at it, but it's no walk in the park.

kikimm
05-03-2007, 11:38 PM
English, I guess. Even though I hate grammar, and don't really enjoy reading the school books. But math is the worst subject in the world, and any science besides biology is incredibly boring.

Mirage

Are you kidding? Astronomy is fantastic!

kikimm
05-03-2007, 11:55 PM
Oh damnit, yeah, that's true. But I've never been offered a class in that, unfortunately. :( It's definitely fascinating.

In Norway we have a subject called natural sciences in jr. high, which covers a bit of biology, chemistry and astronomy. Nothing in-depth though.

Photos of far-away galaxies and things like that make me wish I was Superman, so I could just fly up there and witness them by myself... Why do humans have to be so small and weak? It's not fair.

Of those three, English. I really don't like Math and the last two Science classes I've taken have seemed more Math than Science. Plus I love writing and plan to Major in English, so... Yeah.

My love for math drove me to engineering, where I finally had too much of it :p

English. I love everything about it, except writing papers.

I hate math.... well, REAL math I can deal with, but this algebra nonsense is a waste of time. Why the hell should I care what 6x^5+25y^10=999 is?

Since I'm an astrophysics student, I'm gonna say Science. Maths is great too, especially since its an integral part of physics. I don't really like english all that much, but I appreciate it cos with out it I'll never get any research published when I graduate in a few years.

Slothy
05-04-2007, 03:03 PM
Math and sciences for me. Both are logical and actually make sense. Can't say the same about English unfortunately. Plus Math and Science come rediculously easy to me (and yet I'm a business student; go figure).

Odaisé Gaelach

Maths, especially Calculus. I like to see how things look and behave.

I love History, too.

Maths was always my favourite when I was in high school, but I've always had a passion for science. Biopsychology is amazing, it's all sciency but with a hint of psychology in it. It's hard to choose though because I love english as well. I'm a bit of a geek, I loved them all :D :D :D

Smile and Be happy :love:

"This is how to use the language now let us read a great piece of literature which breaks all the rules and structure we just talked about." Wait...what? My best example is "The old man and the sea"

My AP English teacher hated that book and said it should have been a paragraph.

History is the best mandatory class, but I also like the sciences (especially biology) and even math sometimes (as long as it's not statistics). I really liked English in high school, but that was more to do with the teachers than the subject.

Very difficult. I really love and excelled at all three, but I always found Math most interesting.

Maths requires discipline and understanding, which is why it was my major, and favourite of the three.

Hazzard
05-05-2007, 10:26 AM
I would say History is on the same level of favoritism as English, because one needs a good deal of research, but also needs a interesting compliment of grammar and descriptive language, to make that essay one notch better. English also helps with widening your speech, and really aids you with oral activities. Drama, History and English go hand in hand for me; I can express my emotions well with sophisticated words, and transmit it well with equally good physical actions, through drama. I have knowledge at my disposal, from scanning through history books and lectures from teachers; all this really gives me an advantage I think, and I plan to expand my knowledge through striving to do better in Maths, and business studies for next year-which will also help with my I.T skills.

Definitely Science by far, i hate English because it is so boring, and math's i found just pointless after year 6. When am i going use pythagora's theorem to find an unknown length, instead of measuring it?!

Pike
05-05-2007, 04:27 PM
Science was always the most interesting to me. English I seem to be naturally good at, so it was boring because it was just... stuff I already knew XD And math is interesting, but not quite as interesting as science-- chemistry in particular =]

Science. Even though I'm best at math, I find science so much mpre interesting. English is just plain boring; writing essays and papers, trying to look for deep meaning in literature...yawn.

Rinoabella
05-07-2007, 09:04 AM
Definitely NOT maths!

I'd go for English probably. Wouldn't mind Science, but Science involves a bit of maths so yeah :P English is the most interesting.

Levian
05-07-2007, 09:30 AM
I'd say English, 'cause it's so easy. They're happy as long as we spell things correctly and throw in some cool words with multiple syllables every now and then.

Burtsplurt
05-07-2007, 09:42 AM
Science, but I guess that's kind of a given since I'm just about to finish my training as a Science teacher.

It's knd of scary how many people don't like it. Oh well, at least I'm not a Maths teacher!

Peegee
05-07-2007, 01:52 PM
Science is the most interesting. Math is the most sensible, and English is the course I do the best (grades wise) in.

I like them all, but I would sign up for learning Science any day.
