    What was your worst subject in school?

    Math. :mad: :mad:

    I always got C in all of my math classes in high school and college.

    No matter how much practice I get, I still suck at it.

    I'm taking the GMAT next month and their math questions are TRICKY. :( :(

    Never been that interested in science and, therefore, nearly always performed poorly in just about any science class I had.

    Though I did do well in the geology classes I took in college, but they were gimme classes.

    I would love to do high school again to see if I could get a 4.0. How could you not knowing what you know now?

    I would opt out of honors classes (worthless BS).

    Gym, aside from being boring it was completely pointless. Did I really need to spend 90 minutes every other day playing basketball. When I could be learning something and I already spend the whole freaking day after school playing it anyway?

    Worst 90 minutes of the day for me. Plus 30 minutes was just dressing into gym clothes.

    i'm chinese. i don't suck at school. :D

    anyways, when i took GRE, the math part was super easy. got 790/800. but the english part was hard. i got 480/800 (55th percentile). but the english part was really a memory test. the more words you can memorize the better.

    for high level math though, it was super hard. i majored in statistics and got a master's in biostatistics. some of those high level math/stat classes that i took were just beyond me. i did manage to get decent grade in most classes, but some other chinese who were educated in china, did so much better. it's not even funny. a big blow to my confidence when i competed with chinese students.

    I TA'ed those classes. I could have brought you through.

    My worst subject? Circuits. I never did understand that class. I also had trouble with Physical Chemistry II. (Which at my school was basically a Modern Physics Class.)
