Well this year things have turned a bit for me. I used to be a math type of guy, but so far this year I have a C :( so far which pisses me off, even though it's early. But I'm actually doing well in English which is a first, I'm getting used to reading long boring books. I would use to only read the Cliffs Notes and thought it'd get me by, but now reading both the book and reading the "guide" have helped greatly. History remains to be boring...

And no, lunch, PE, detention, etc., don't count :D

English has always been my best subject. I have written a lot of stories and several poems, now if I would only do something with them.. ;)

History is and will always be my best and favorite subject, its exciting learning about our past and how it has affected us to today.

English was fun but it was too... flowery. I prefer language that is more direct and not all sweetened up. That's probably why I like philosophy; it's as dry as you can get.

I don't consider Computer Ed a real class, so I'd have to go with math, especially Algebra 2.

I was good in all subjects. I especially excelled at Sex Ed. ;)

Didn't do too well in the beginning of Trig, but the teacher was and absolute b*tch and didn't know sh!t about Trig. That's where I got my first (only) C. :(

I generally prefer Math/Physics/Chemistry/Computers. (Have degrees in all but Math).

Wood Shop. No,really, I took it all four years of high school. That must explain why I have so many problems with computers. I could probably build a better computer desk than computer. DOH!

Inorganic Chemistry and Latin I, II, and III.

There were no real computer courses available when I was inhigh school. The x286 was state of the art when I was starting college...

Easiest: Liberal Arts. I never received any grade lower than an &quot;A&quot; in History, English, Philosphy etc.. Too easy all through the years.

Challenging: Calculus (3 semesters!), Physical Chemistry (2 years)

Fun: Biochemistry, Biophysics

I guess that is why I became a Scientist (Fun stuff)

Although I could have been a BASTARD of a LAWYER. Probably saved my soul by NOT choosing that profession. Still time though....

math (alg1 &amp; 2, geometry) and compsci. latin and chem are my worse subjects. as for english, I did pretty well, but I never truly liked it. but this year, I have this awesome british teacher (she's teaching american lit...) and I like this class so far. and for math, I'm taking pre calc this year...I absolutely hate the teacher b/c her teachings are so vague so pre calc is becoming more and more difficult for me.
