Hated maths, but it’s my favourite (maybe) to teach!
wanted to take media studies for A level but my pal laughed at me and persuaded me not to still sad about that. would probably be king of the media by now
liked maths cos i was lazy and it was the subject that required least effort
When we were at school everyone’s parents were like it’s a doss/made up subject, but look at the world now!
was anyone else forced to do ‘general studies’ as part of their AS levels? remember turning up to the first class, the teacher sticking the matrix on saying we’d be having a philosophical discussion about it and walking out during the break. sat the exam without going to a single lesson and got an A.
yeah, can’t really remember what we did but it was nonsense
A level economics was the one I really enjoyed
Also enjoyed music and pe
Maths and physics were great but struggled a bit with my a levels and shit teachers.
English Language/Literature
Studied it throughout school and at uni, too, to underline the fact I love a good read.
pitch and toss
IT and maths. At Uni I studied Computer Science with Mathematics.
As s job I’m a database developer and reporting/data analyst so it still applies.
Geography. My school had one geography teacher who was absolutely brilliant, terrifying but brilliant. Used to actually look forward to his lessons. He got me an A at A-level and an obsession with maps. I still have anxiety dreams about not having done his homework though
Yeah I wrote ‘i can’t be arsed with this’ on my exam and got a U
I was punk as fuck
One thing I quite liked about geography was learning about earthquakes in japan and then going home and watching Digimon and feeling like Digimon was a type of supplementary learning.
I bet everyone did St Helens 1980 and Kobe 1995 as case studies for natural disasters
techy. got the prize for graph comm.
and that’s what i do for a living now, go figure
music, obviously
no one else has said music, really?
did general studies AS level and got a U but then didn’t have it on my timetable the following year when everyone else did so it worked out great tbh
better than being sat in front a textbook doing nothing for two years tho
Definitely art. Did a foundation year after my A levels and then a degree in graphic design, which is what I do for a living
Liked most things and struggled to narrow it down to seven choices for 4th year tbh and ended up dropping PE which was one of my favourites but wasn’t going to realistically be something I did as a Higher. Liked music and English and French. Tolerated the sciences, and maths was great but very badly taught in my school as the teachers all had issues and were never in.
Both history teachers were pervs.
