Been awhile, but i had a strong dislike of math because of how it was taught to me, which is a bit of a shame because i find it more interesting now.

English class was probably my favorite because i did a lot of reading at a young age, and enjoy writing.

Information technology, probably because i felt like i knew more than the teacher did. Least favorite was algebra, so I took the stupid people math class after the first year.

I dislike Math to the core.

I love Art, but if we are talking general classes and not electives then I would say sicence. Especially my vet science class I took one year, a lot of fun dissecting those pigs and learning about the animal anatomy.

Back when I was in school my least favorite subject was high school math. Every single teacher I had was old, strict, an unhappy divorcee, and unbelievably boring. There was just no staying awake by listening to them. If it hadn't been for my love of reading, even reading textbooks, I never would have passed.

The thing I hated the absolute most, though, was homework assignments handed back with 25% taken off my grade for not showing my work. Every ****ing time, 75%. I don't show my work because I don't need to write that crap out, I can do it in my head. Writing out every equation is just a waste of my time. Ultimately I just said to hell with it, take your stupid deduction, I don't need this class, anyway. I'll use my SAT scores to gain automatic entrance to college.

The best class of all time was worlds apart: Debate. Every day was a joy. The teacher was one of the few amongst the union drones who could think for herself, so she always challenged us. The kids were the smartest our school had on offer, always good company, and nerdy chicks are just awesome.

Our class time was spent constructing cases, presenting them from both sides in mock debates, practicing for events that included student congress and teen court. Then we'd go on trips to tournaments, which was always nice when you won something, but still fun even if you lost. We learned truly valuable skills that people need every day, like the ability to speak in front of anyone, even large audiences. All-around it was just a hell of a lot of fun.

I use to strongly dislike Math. The ways it was taught could have been simpler. I was actually pretty good at English/Language Arts.

No idea tbh. All I know is I was able to opt. out of it when I got into 6th grade or so and in return went to have some other philosophical classes or sth.

Favorite is history. I don't particularily hate any subject, but math is the most annoying to learn.

Maths, Science, the spelling tests in English, and Health.

Everything else was useless af. Had to do 8hrs of art a week at one point. Why? idk..

So they said, but they had seen me do it front of them many times. I didn't have a calculator for most tests and quizzes, either.

What they wanted was for me to do the homework they had prepared even though I knew the material, just because they didn't want to do anything different. That's fine, it's not like I could reasonably expect them to teach multiple curricula in one class, and math was a requisite, but it was also their problem, not mine.
