My top is drama, its my fave i love it and so i work hard and i get the marks as a result

my worst is chem. I do liek no work any more cos it got boring and now im jsut swamped in concepts i dnt understad cos i didnt do the work. if i did do the work id probs be doing pretty well but u know... thats jsut not how i roll lol

and i jsit wanna say i dnt get how ppl can be liek math/scientifically inclined over something else to me everythings the same its jsut i enjoy artsy stuff more so i try harder and get better results, but if i applied myself in teh same way to my matsh and science id do jutst as well. But some ppl r just left or right brainers, and thast cool but theres no need to slam the other types of subs.

best - ext 1 maths although it isn't really the most interesting, maybe chem or ext 2 for that
worst - BIOLOGY without a single doubt, grr, so boring, although my teacher's really cool XD major star trek fan, slips in references in all of our worksheets/revision tests/whatever, pretty funny, doesn't help my marks in it though...

Best subject: Extension Maths
Worst subject: Economics

As for the English bit, I honestly don't think that 'English is a subject for not smart people' - it just favours conceptual thinkers more, as opposed to those who prefer the science subjects with its right-or-wrong nature and concrete facts. I guess it just depends on what you personally look at when you define 'smart' - whether you think smart means being able to look at the issues and ideas behind a text, or being able to apply theoretical knowledge to the physical world around you.

By the way, I don't think you're very modest foram - you basically dissed the shit out of everybody at your school. :p

Well Maths is one of the most important subjects for most courses.

True, but if someone doesn't have the type of intellectual capacity to do maths but still wants to do it in a future course - they should definitely reassess their possibilities

I agree. Maths is truly as important as English, if not more. It is good idea to Maths even if it is General Maths.

However, on the other hands, I would truly not recommend Maths if someone is absolutely hopeless at it or if that someone has other subjects that he/she can excel in other than Maths. Apart from that, maths should be studied by everyone since it is fundamental assumed knowledge for many courses.
