7-11 2 Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 What were you good/bad at? I was good at maths and economics, but hated English classes. Chemistry was a downer too, as was Latin. Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, danz, you're a long way off qualifying for that and you probably never will, with or without the beard. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 danz, I'm curious, does that make you good at snooker? All of those subjects hold more terror for me than the pits of hell. I was good at English, French, Art and History. I liked Biology too, but my teacher was a proper cow who didn't care what anybody learned. I think most of the subjects at school should be left to university, and more basic, useful things taught. Remembering heaps of dates and the details of 18th century legislation is a ridiculous way of spending ones youth. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 Eng lang / eng lit - hated them. Maths, biology, geography - loved em. In my case - in many cases - my opinions of a subject have sooooo much to do with the teacher we had. Link to post Share on other sites
amandanism 0 Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 arts and humanities mainly. i was pretty decent at design/tech and graphic drawing. also pretty good at geography. absolutley crap at sciences and languages though. so much of what i learnt in high school i will never use again. design was good because it was alot to do with practicality and stuff you will use later on, for me atleast.

miteyak 0 Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 Maths, physics and chemistry. Dumped them all to do economic science... Link to post Share on other sites
night-mare 0 Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 I hated physics as much as you can hate a subject. I could see absolutely no point, and no relevance to the real world, and the teacher sucked. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 night-mare, I agree with that - only I began to see the relevance of some it when I got into the real world and realized I knew nothing about it... Sad, innit? Link to post Share on other sites

snowboard_freak 0 Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 My favourite subjects in school were geography and good old PE!! Hated maths with a passion. Didn't mind english - sometimes. I enjoyed religion but hated the way it was taught. Link to post Share on other sites

Markie 0 Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 I hated French at high school. Although I actually enjoy learning languages, including French, my French teacher had a gift for making her lessons the dread of my school life. I actually had nightmares of her lessons up to three years after I graduated from her last class. Link to post Share on other sites
