Re: Rank Your GCSES in order of EnjoyabilityThe thing that made me decide not to take History at GCSE was the fact,that it lacked Ancient Topics like the Ancient Greeks,Romans and focused only on Hitler,Black Rights and N.Ireland all modern,when history should be about both modern and ancient.I have always liked Ancient History because it is a lot harder to understand and imagine than modern history and modern history topics like Hitler,I had already learned about it too much.(Original post by johnharris19944)

I like the practical side of music but ANYTHING else I just can't STAND.
My Grade 8 in 2 instruments was so unnecessary, I'd have chosen Greek or something.

Re: Rank Your GCSES in order of EnjoyabilityMy favourites were:
1. History (Amazing teacher and class)
2. Maths (I had most of the lessons at the end of the day, it was relaxing for me, also a great teacher)
3. Spanish (I was probably the only one in my class that enjoyed this lesson, but I love languages
)
4. French (Same reason as Spanish)
5. ICT (Quite boring, but really nice teacher and it was easy
)
6. English Literature/Language (I enjoyed Lit, but Language bored me and the teacher was quite obnoxious, meaning people took the mick out of him, again not funny, just awkward)
7. Geography (Teacher was a bit quirky, but I got on with it and was sat next to my friend who really enjoyed Geography, so it was all good)
8. RE (Felt uneccessary to do the work, but the teacher was nice in a quirky way, but the people in the class were desperately trying to be funny by taking the mick out of her, they're really not funny
)
9. Core Science (The absolute WORST teacher who had no idea how to control a class full of slags and chavs, we got a new teacher, so it was okay then, but the damage had been done, everyone was failing and resitting. When everyone but a few people resat an exam, I didn't even do any work. I wish I took Additional/Triple Science, not doing this is my biggest regret (as well as choosing an iPhone 4 over a Galaxy S2)
