Mine was Science. We had to take double Science at GCSE, and had a lesson every single day. Five hours a week were wasted sitting in a classroom just messing around because I had absolutely no interest in the subject - and I'm obviously not going to try when a lesson bores me so much. The annoying thing in the end was I failed the coursework, and did pretty good on the exam, and that was without knowing a thing we had been 'taught' over the two years, had I done well on the coursework I could well have got a D, possibly even a C.

After that, I'd say French. In year 7, 8 and 9 I loved it. But in year 10/11 I just lost all interest, and only really picked it because it was the only lesson in the 'block' we could choose from that was better than the rest of them. I had a falling out almost every lesson with the teacher. I did quite well on the coursework, but my exams - due to lack of preparation and revision - brought my grade down to a D.

Physics was definately the worst. Biology second worst and I actually didn't mind Chemistry.

Food technology and media studies. Boring, pointless, long and tedious coursework, class full of chavs and (for the former) useless teacher. Stupid school making us do a D&T and an expressive art :mad:

Well, I find French pretty boring at the moment as we have the worst teacher...although he does say really strange things at times. But in some lessons I just lose the will to stay awake, even from the beginning of the lessons. Luckily no more lessons...but if I'd had one of the others, I'd prefer it.

English I hate...I just see most of it as pointless...like when are we ever going to need to be able to analyze poems in so much detail? I can read well, I can write well, my grammar/spelling etc's good...I just don't see the point really.

You can say that about pretty much every GCSE though. Unless you go on to do further study in that subject or a closely related career, you're never going to use most of what you learnt. I've certainly never used anything I learnt in about half of my GCSEs, namely maths, science, RE and media studies.

I'm doing triple science, and we only have 3 lessons a week, which are only an hour long. How did you fill up time with a lesson everday?

I do triple science (AQA) and we have a lesson everyday lol! We only just got it all finished! How did you manage with 3 a week?

PE by far. Didn't mind the practicals so much, but the theory was dull and pointless.

How do you manage to fit it all in? :s-smilie:

I do Double Award and have 5 lessons per week of it. Are your lessons longer than 1 hour?

My worst subject has to be either:

-ICT: This was so pointless. We spent the first year of the GCSE course doing 1 presentation, which was worth 3 out of 60 total coursework marks. We had 5 teachers of the whole two years. :frown:

Thankfully, i ended up finishing the coursework. My marks was 63/64 in the end... but that is only because i secretly used the mark scheme all the way through. :wink:

-English: I am terrible at this. As i was in top set, there was a lot of high achievers in the class. This made me feel very inadequate during the lessons. We studied a lot of hard texts (for both coursework and exam) which most people in my class seemed to grasp very easily, whereas i often had no idea. :s-smilie:

Leisure & Tourism: This class if full of chavs. And the coursework is farrr to long and tedious. The teacher was okay, but the people in the class were just horrible. :frown:

There was only 11 of us too..

It's interesting nobdy has said maths which is what I would have assumed would prop up a lot.

I hate Maths. I understand that some of it is commonly used but I just don't see the point in things like simultaneous equations etc.

I loathe Physics. Last year I wouldn't have said this, but the teacher this year is a total arse and the subject has become the bane of my life. Rargh. It's put me off the subject for life... I was previously considering taking it for A-level. :frown:

This year it just seems so boring and stupid that I couldn't ever consider doing more of it. :afraid:

I also hate any subject that involves me doing something productive with computers. They always ('they' being ICT, DiDA etc.) seem to be immensely boring and very, very pointless. A complete waste of time.

Has to be Physics by a LONG way....such a tedious subject

1) To me it seems utterly pointless...what affects your reaction times...not physics more like PSE.
2) I've got such a bad teacher, who makes all of these terrible simulations, which is all we do all lesson.
3) There's too much to learn that is complete crap, IMO, unlike another subject where you've got to learn loads like Chemistry, French...where it's useful.
