How do you find spanish easy?! Maybe it’s because it’s my least favourite out of my subjects but I find it difficult to remember verbs etc
Easy to hardest
Chemistry
Psychology
Biology

Although cuz my chemistry teacher hasn’t been in for 6 weeks we are behind so the stuff I’m doing is fairly simple so far in lesson.
Easiest to hardest:
- English Literature.
- Religious Studies
- History.

Despite loving American history, the British side of it is 'The Making of Modern Britain, 1951–2007' and I couldn't detest it further. It is purely political history so far and I find it soul draining to be honest. Doesn't help I don't like my teacher for it either.

i’m thinking of taking these !! is it weird taking all the sciences or is it fairly manageable


Sorry for the late reply! I am finding it ok at the moment, the workload hasn't been too bad. It is a bit strange doing so many of the same subject, I definitely find it pretty samey, but they're all very good and enjoyable subjects :smile:

Hardest to Easiest:

French- I seem to randomly put everything in the conditional. I'm not that great at grammar (I don't know all the correct terms, etc.) , as we were never really taught it in English, which makes it harder to use in French.
Chemistry- This involves too much maths for my taste and I bizarrely understand dot and cross diagrams far better for covalent structures than ionic.
History- My eldest sister did Philosophy and Politics at Uni and we were constantly having political debates (much to the chagrin of our dad), so that helps with the British side of stuff (apparently it's very similar to the Govt. & Politics course), and the Russian side of things is really interesting.
Psychology- Some of the questions are oddly-worded and you do have to remember quite a bit, but it's the most straightforward out of my four subjects (though now I've said that, it'll all start going horribly wrong :smile: )
