nae danger.

So growing up what was the classes you excelled most in at school, and what was your down falls?

Mathematics for me was my go to subject literally always been a brain box with numbers closely followed by home economics, wich actually played a part in my work life after leaving

Clear to see my down fall was English itself not so the spelling itself as I found words easy, I just never took to punctuation and knowing where to insert them.

What about all of you what was your fave subjects? Least favourite? If I don't see English here somewhere I'll be mega surprised

I was great at Maths and decent in English and Science. I did alright in my other subjects but messed around a lot and didn’t get the grades I was predicted to get. A massive wasted opportunity but it is what it is.

I was good at pretty much everything. My favourites were English and History. My least favourite accountancy (which I dropped when we chose our final matric subjects).

With my love of English and History, I naturally went to university and studied Electronic Engineering.

Loved Art and was good at it. For some unknown reason my school didn't provide gcse Art but Art/CDT combined was compulsory for all, which was odd in itself. Whilst I loved Art I hated CDT and was terrible at it so averaged a C. Really disappointing bc I'd have liked to have taken Art further.

Loved History and still do, documentaries, novels, period dramas ect

Coventry

Physics, maths, drama and history. I had absolutely no intrest in the other subjects so would generally spend my time day dreaming or being disruptive. I generally didn't like school and wouldn't apply myself to anything that didn't peak my intrest. The majority teachers would refer to me as a waster or a loser (my biology teacher would always mock my spelling). To be fair I would give some of these teachers some right shit and some good arguments. However there were a few (mainly in the subjects I liked) who would say I was pretty awesome and very smart. Never seem to be any teachers who viewed me somewhete in the middle.

The only time I ever really applied myself to study was starting out in my first career aged 19. An intensive solid 14 months of electronic engineering. Turns out I can actually can be a swat if its a subject I'm really intrested in and getting paid to do at the same time.

I enjoyed rural science but that was about it. I detested school otherwise. I wasn't great or terrible at any subject really, never at the top or bottom of anything academically or never really in trouble but never recieved an award either. I was a grey child i guess. I just went because I was obliged to go. I just wanted to leave from the minute I arrived, bored out of my mind all day doing things I really didn't want to be doing, and therefore never really applying myself to much of anything.

It's a phase of my life I still consider the most dull and would never care to repeat and I still to this day don't think I gained a great deal from it, not for the sheer amount of time sunk into it anyway.

no matter

Biology Algebra cooking and sewing art . Back in the 60’s things were very different . I hated school and didnt learn well,easily distracted day dreamer .

Now i love geography learning so much through television and books. my maths improved when i started work . Having been a low achiever according to the Nuns i have produced two super talented kids both studying sciences at uni.

Just shows you can improve and continue to grow after school if you put mind to it .

Sciences, art, geography, and english I enjoyed the most to gcse level. Environmental science and biology I was most enthusiastic for at A level, physics I enjoyed listening to and the theory but when it came to practical/exams and actually working through equations my brain would just glitch at the complex math needed.

Undergrad I did biochemistry and animal sciences - toxicology, pharmacology and animal behaviour were the most interesting modules. Post grad was highly specific to my career niche but the strategic planning modules got me going most of all. Which makes sense as I work in strategy consulting.

I loved school mostly favourite subjects English, drama, history and French

Hated subjects - physics, maths, art and PE.

I have a great appreciation for art and artists but I cannot draw/paint to save my life which frustrated the teachers.

Similarly PE I was a skinny kid so they assumed I would be good at PE (military brat so repeatedly the new kid) but I had zero co-ordination for this and hated being outdoors in winter frozen and wet for bloody hockey etc!

Surprised someone else did rural science! I’ve never met someone outside of that school who’s done that subject. I actually quite enjoyed this but wasn’t particularly good at it.

I loved maths and hated metalwork. The metalwork teacher should never of gone into that job. He struggled and used to throw things across the classroom at the pupils.

Did OK with most things, but metalwork/engineering was the miracle exam pass.

We had to make a "knurled plumb-bob".

Maths, Physics and biology for me. I wanted to be a vet but my chemistry teacher was sooooo boring I just couldn’t get enthused no matter how much I tried.

Loved PE too. English was OK but I was too busy playing out to get the coursework done.

School was great. Even though I didn’t know it at the time.

I loved music the most as is a great hobby of mine too.

Was variable and teacher dependent for the negative ones. Had a teacher who thought Latin is the only subject. Hated it but then managed better with a different teacher.

What were my favourites and what I was good at are two different things…

My favourites were history geography French and German…

I was the person with the very weird combination of being very good at maths, but also really shit at the sciences…. And by shit.. I mean really shit!

I was the special kid who they didn’t know what to do with as pure and applied mathematics wasn’t going to work… so they found an examination board who did statistics to see if that was an option… aced it in 6 months… so they allowed me to go up the higher ed college to do that 1 a level, whilst doing the others where I was

English was the subject I excelled in the most throughout school, specifically English lit from GCSE onwards.

English and Sociology. Sociology from GCSE onwards was my favourite subject by a country mile and, shocker, I went on to study it at university.

I enjoyed maths but was only average at it.

I found English ok, didn’t have to work much to get the results, that’s always a bonus

Hated foreign languages with a passion, did French German and Latin when they were compulsory but dropped them as soon as got the choice.

I was in quite a few sports teams at school and played for the county.

Physics was my favourite subject and, I think, the one I was best at. Religious Education was my least, mainly because I had already had enough of Christianity being forced on me by my parents at that point Oh, or German/ French, but that was purely because the teacher was a bit of a nutcase
