Interesting poll. Chemistry just tumbled behind physics. Damn that makes me want to have done physics...

I like chemistry. But maybe that's because my teacher is awesome :)

I would probably have physics second, but I like the teachers for bio better.

I'm assuming that you're in Year 10. Physics, Chem and Bio are completely different in Year 10 - so I'm pretty sure those assumptions will change.

Hopefully, you'll end up liking physics better :p

Biology - esp. the HSC course which is primarily focused on the human being.
Physics is fine... except for those mind-boggling calculations.
Chemistry would be great if the teacher wasn't so stagnated in himself.

But all in all, Science is perhaps the only subject that can provide or develop an explanation for many of the occurrences on earth - that's what makes it interesting.

Yeah man, 'phyeeshics is da best'.

Physics as I've said before - to me is the most useful and logical science, and it explains how our world works.
well then, bio explains how life works. wouldnt that be more useful? :p

^^ Which is why Biology is much preferred by me. They should make Biology compulsory, like that of English.

Biology can be reduced down to Chemistry and Chemistry can be reduced down to Physics.

DNA can be explained in Chemistry, but how would you relate that to Physics?
Dispersion forces? All the electrons moving around?
