Like, history? I'm not reading all that shit, writing paragraphs out for you. Ugh.
Math: all angles of a (euclidian) triangle add to 180. One is 120. One is 30. One is x. What is x? 😎 really? That's the lesson, just like 45 different ways? Ok. Ez.
Haven’t you made it past primary school yet?
Is this your way of saying you failed Differential Equations in college?
😢 that's the easy stuff it gets harder
No it doesn't, you're just bad at it.
I think you responded to the wrong guy
I did not.
My bad, what you wrote and quoted made no sense to me as a response to my comment or the one I responded to.
You suggested I hadn't made it out of primary school yet, presumably because my math example was a trig/algebra example.
This came off as gloating over your own math skills.
I let you know it came off as immature by asking you if that was your way of telling us that you had failed more difficult math classes, like diff eqs.
I then closed by letting you know that not only am I beyond primary school, I found a notoriously difficult math curriculum (again, diff eqs) to be just as easy as the trig/calc that made me fall for math in then first place.
Finally, I suggested that all math is easy if you're good at math, and that if you found something in math challenging, it'd be because you personally struggled with it and not because it didn't make perfect sense, to tie the whole point together.
Sozialwissenschaften (social sciences/ politics and economics), compared to everything else was non trivial and not tedious content. Math and physics and CS are nice and all but talking about current Events and interpreting them using certain models was always the most fun for me. With the slight downside of having to remember all the nomenclature.
I never would have written a 20+ page homework for any other subject, but for this sowi course I dug myself through the Israeli Arab conflict in as much depth as you need to get a good general overview, and I was having fun doing it.
It helped a lot that I picked the course because I knew which teacher it was going to be held by, and that the teacher was genuinely very good.
History, which I later went on to get my degrees in. As for why, I believe it was 100% due to how awesome my APUSH history teacher was in high school
Up through high school it was math, I'm good at it and it's all about figuring out rules rather than memorizing facts. If you were good enough at math in my school you never had to study material like you did with history or english readings, and there is a strong satisfaction to truly understanding the rules that our universe operates by. In the later years of high school I also got to try programming classes, which helped lead me to where I am today.
Lunch!
High school? Chemistry. I took it because I had no interest in biology. Turned out to be interesting, so much so that I took Chem II even though it wasn't required to graduate.
Chem II was the hardest math class in high school. I loved it.
College? Computer Organization. It's about how computers work down at the circuitry level. All the programming was in assembly. Easily the hardest class I took in college.
I don't know why the hard classes were always my favorites.
Chemistry was super fascinating. I looked forward to taking chemistry since I was 9-10 years old. A lot more math than I imagined for sure!
I always found that quite strange about some countries. It's such a broad topic, it doesn't make sense as a single subject. Biology, Chemistry, Physics are all perfectly good subjects on their own.
Oh, it did get split into those three subjects, but that was later in high school, IIRC.
In the US, the science courses for lower grades, like grades k through 6, are usually sort of like survey courses. So there might be one unit of biology, one unit of some really basic physics stuff, one about space, etc. Once you get into higher grades it will change over to a whole course on biology followed by chemistry the next year or whatever.

This was my favorite also. I love knowing how and why things work so all science was naturally interesting to me. Math was a close second since it felt like doing puzzles which was very satisfying. English and history were my least favorite since it involved a lot of memorization or creativity which I lack.
High school: Physics or Calculus. Loved Newtonian physics, and I was always good at advanced math (sucked at basic arithmetic for some reason, always got bored and skipped steps)
College: Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer, or Fluid Dynamics. Combination of advanced math and physics, always really cool to me. Differential equations was a close fourth.
I liked my moral and ethical philosophy class, up until the professor started evangelizing to us about religion, which kinda ruined it for me
History, one of two teachers I got that wasn't a total asshole and he was cool, Mr Wilkens. " And "Values and standards" (don't know how to translate it differently, we had it instead of religion), the teacher was the other human being in our school. All other teachers were sick nutcases and / or simply assholes. RIP Mr Lehrke, the small grey guy who talked with me for hours about kabbalah, mysticism and all that other stuff I was into. And he liked the cheap discount beer, like me :) He was the reason I went to University. Solely.
Maths because it's the easiest.
Well since nobody said my favorite yet ill toss out History.
I hated history as a student but now that I’m older I find it a lot more fascinating and wish I had paid better attention back then
Information and Technology lol. You'd think I'd take a major in computer science, right? But I actually despised math so I went to art school instead. Though I must say I feel like I didn't like math because I suspect that I have what is basically mild dyscalculia (undiagnosed), for lack of a better term, and I'm learning some coping skills.
I had a new robotics course when I was in school . At that point I had already been doing alot with a after school robotics club . So I was basically allowed to do what ever I wanted I'm that class .
I'm known for being bad at all of them, but as long as it's not gym class, I can tolerate it.
Math, because I'm good at it
English isn't the native language where I'm from so I liked English classes the most. It was fun flexing my English skills to others that couldn't speak it very well.
Physics, biology(until we got to cells and I lost track) and theatre.
The last one was nice because I got to let loose and be myself ironically enough :)
In college I took a 2D animation class. It wasn't really part of my major but it counted towards my graduation requirements. By that time, I had already made a few flash animations for Newgrounds so I went in with some experience and just had blast. Apparently the faculty had some sort of show and tell meeting and one of my other professors came up to me one day to say she enjoyed it.
This is what people don't understand about electives in college. They think they are just bullshit courses that are a waste of time. You should go into picking an elective as a way to relax, learn something about a subject you are interested in but might not be all that knowledgeable about. You might come out of it with a new hobby or interest you want to pursue further. Maybe people more two dimensional.
English. IDK why, I've just always been obsessed with reading and written words and language since learning how to read.
It was math but I realize I'm really bad at it.
Math. The problems are hard but if you know math, you can do lots of stuff with it. Though I can't say I am good at memorizing formulas.
World history in high school. My teacher made learning fun. My teacher occasionally brought replica artifacts and such to class.
Math. It was the least effort to success ratio.

Is recess a subject?
