Well I'd say my favourite is definitely calculus. I found it really remedial and it obviously overlapped nicely with sped (:

i also thought calculus was the best topic because i could actually see how it can applie to real life situations. Have not finished probability yet but i hate it :(
Trig wasn't too bad either
