Specialist maths - because maths is the only subject which doesn't have moronic teachers who give you a mark proportional to how much they like you. If you are good at maths, you can expect 100% on the exam, but even the best English student in the state can't expect 100% on an English exam.

In order from most loved to least loved:

1. Biology and Chemistry. Both of my most interesting subjects and I'll always never get bored of it. And it's a good "Science" combo for Year 12. A lot better than something like Chemistry/Physics...
2. Methods - It's not too hard for me to understand, but it can still get quite difficult and tricky. It's one of the more remedial subjects to be honest. You can just do Methods to relax. For hours straight at a time. Then when you get to one of those tricky questions your mind has to get working.
3. English - Writing essays and learning how to bullshit is a chore.
4. French - I used to be good in Year 10 (which was like my 2nd year doing it) but I've been kicking myself for not doing Spesh instead. I'm afraid this is gonna be my lowest raw.
5. Chinese - It was so corrupted and bs and like the competition is insanely high argh, I loved it for the scaling though

Fav is Specialist, then probably English (I like discussing the idea's in English, but don't really enjoy writing essays) and then Physics. Last is Methods. Not that I don't like Methods, it's just specialist makes it boring, and we move through it much slower than spec.

In year 12, my least favourite subject was methods. What's my favourite subject so far at uni this semester? Differential equations. Keep an open mind, everyone! :)

Psychology- 46!
Theatre studies- 37
Biology- 35
English- 34
Further maths-33
