So lucky u have the choice to actually do that .
Because I have Bio and Chem I can’t do that .
Why can’t they just let me do bIo , chem ,history and philosophy 😑😑😑😑

This is triggering me on the inside....

Can’t relate at all I love English

LOOL everyone has their own preferences and with a few exceptions, you are either on one side or the other (Maths or English). For what I wanna do (Investment banking) english is useless. For what you wanna do (Law/Criminology) Maths is useless.

There are still 2 ways you can get to do History and Philosophy....

1) Join the History and Philosophy societies at Harris

2) Beg the head of courses (Mr. Grant) to let you switch

I would choose option 1!

Nice! Provided I meet the grades (which I should), I'm looking forward to it!

What about maths do you like ? Is it the whole it’s either right or wrong ? Or do you just find it easy / passionate about it as a subject ?

Here's a list of why I like maths:

Very logical

You"re either right or wrong

So satisfying when you clock something and get it right

Had a natural gift at it from a very young age (I got a 6 at it on the SATs) Although have been slacking lately

So many applications

links directly with what I wanna do in the future

its kinda fun (Im not totally hooked on to it by I have two friends that get an orgasm every time they hear the word "maths". One of them carries a problem solving guide everywhere)
