which subject is youre favourite or the best and why ?
+1biology is my favourite
because i have no interest whatsoever in chem and physics.
you cant say one is 'better' than the other. its personal opinion.
explains why its the only one i enjoy :uhhuh:Biology is an easy subject to get marks out of, if you put in the work you don't reeeeeally need natural talent to do well, it's mostly memorising content. Yr 11 course isn't too fascinating but yr 12 looks great. It's probably the most humanity-ish of the sciences.
Chemistry I find less interesting, but it's rewarding and satisfying to work out things logically. It is quite challenging, but easy if you stay up to date and pay attention throughout the year..
Physics I have no idea,
I would probably hate it though, too mathsy.
the bold - this is very true.High school biology is pathetic. Don't get me wrong, Biology is a beautiful science, but the way they teach it in the prelim course is a joke. Apparently it gets "better" in year 12 but I'm taking no chances.
EDIT: I realised that this post was unjustified, so I'll try. The syllabus is almost completely content based. There is no intellectual input required, whatsoever. In an exam, you either know the answer, or you don't. In a purer science like chemistry or even purer, physics, if you sit there thinking for about 5 seconds you can come up with the answer. So if your marks depend on your intellect, avoid biology like the plague.
Or you can be a Humanities geek like me and make up shit and make it sound credible and you get 10/10. Chemistry is pretty funny shit though. It'd be my favourite out of all 3 Sciences (the only part of physics that interests me is Astronomy).High school biology is pathetic.
