    Please note that this poll is Multi-Vote.
    Total vote count: 762

    The three most popular subjects so far updated monthly :ninja:
    Maths - 245 :king1:
    History- 136 :king2:
    Chemistry - 131 :king3:

    (accurate as of 07/08/12)

    further stuff to read

    So now that you've settled in to your subjects (or I'd hope?), I thought I'd steal the chance to make a poll again :yes:
    It is also a multiple-vote. poll for those of you that can't quite decide.

    I've tried to put all the most obvious A levels that people do at A level/International Baccalaureate/Highers.

    If you do a favourite subject that isn't listed, simply post a comment and i'll add it to the OP.

    It would also be interesting to see
    - Why you like the subject.
    - If you picked multiple choice answer, which of the subjects do you like in order?

    Thanks

    Other fav subjects not on the poll -
    Music (4)
    Classical Civ (2)
    Archaeology (1)

    I've gone for Politics and English lit because I couldn't decide.

    I'm not entirely sure why I went for English lit because I thought I hated it but I don't.

    Is that a reason to put English as your favourite

    It is, because looking back, I actually enjoyed English lit a lot but I was terrible at it.

    This thread is probably better off in the actual A level forum.

    I selected English, Politics and History (my 3 A2s) and Philosophy just because I wished I could have done it :p:
    Favourite is probably Politics.

    No it started off as my favourite subject, but then I started hating it because of one teacher but the other teacher was simply amazing and I somehow reinkindled my love for it.

    Chemistry and Maths. Maths because it was easy, Chemistry because it was interesting.
