Believe it or not, my favorite subject was HISTORY! I loved how it never changed facts-wise, but as you grew up, it’s meaning sort of evolved. I love the progression and invention that helped get us to where we are today. I am very (some word I can’t remember). I have to see the mechnics of a thing, it’s genetic make-up so-to-say, in order to really appreciate/understand it. I just love love love History (and it was only natural to fall in love with Historical romance!)
Love regencies because of all the social rules and dictates that our favorite hero’s and heroine’s just HAVE to break!! lol

Oh that is simple, history 😀 Lol, our teacher liked me cos we always had quizzes and I always got everything right. I even got this question right where he asked what the time was on the picture. Yup history is the best

Ohhh I will break the line here now. My favorite subject was Psychology. I love to get an understanding why we do this and that and I our teacher was awesome. He had one or two little OCDs. We spent most of the time analyzing our OCDs or stupid fears. I love it and I would have loved to study it more at the university but the German system is not the best and they told me to wait 11 semesters (5,5 years) before I’m allowed to start it. And I was not that bad in school. So yeah no psychology for me, just in my free time with my books. 😉
When I was in school English was my favorite subject where we read and discussed all types of stories. History was actually not a favorite at all but I really like historical romance so I think all I needed in school was a romance added to the textbook.
I enjoyed English – being a journalism major in college I loved writing and reading.

I pretty much liked all school subjects, except math. English was probably my favorite. I loved reading, discussing, and writing. Still do!
I’m gonna say band with English running right behind it. I always did well in both of those. Math and science though were just bad, bad, bad.
Though now that I think about it I did like learning about Ramses II. I’ve always been fascinated with Egypt.
English was my favorite subject. I enjoyed all the stories we read. Math was my least favorite subject.
I loved history too so the fascination with the past was always there for me. We just came back from the medieval city of Carcassone and it was a lovely time for me!
When i grew up a bit more English literature was mmy favourite subject probably because we studied some interesting books such as Thomas Moore’s book.
And of course Italian – i love love this language!

I liked American and European history; Math; French and English. I’ve always enjoyed learning new things and each subject taught me different things about the world at large.
One good thing about my high school English & history teachers, was that if we were studying the French Revolution in history class, then my English teacher assigned a book about that time period. They always tied the two subjects together.
I loved History. I was always an avid big reader, but my favorite books were all historical fiction or historical romance so it’s not that much of a leap. History was my best subject, I much preferred writing about the causes of some such revolution than discussing the symbolism and irony in some such eighteenth century novel. To me, history was just a series of many interconnecting stories anyway with no symbolism to worry about it! LOL! *can you tell I despised writing English papers?*
I loved history when it was about the people, not just dates and facts. I guess that’s why I enjoy historical romances so much.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who liked math. 🙂 I also liked science. I didn’t like history until at the college level.

My favorite subject was science.

Math! Least memorizing involved. I’ve always had a bad memory 🙂
I loved history lessons and still do, because I’m teaching them now! *g* Besides history, I liked learning foreign languages (English, Russian and Latin, I’m German btw) as well.
Does study hall count? 🙂 Not sure of a favorite – prob btwn math, english, & history (liked parts of them a lot, but hated parts too). Definetly didn’t like science.
I loved geography. I loved learning about different states/countries and the differences in cultures and their way of living.

In HS, I loved my yearbook classes. With English close behind. My English teachers were terrific.
In college, it was history.
Wow, I thought I’d be the only one saying this but apparently not. I loved history. For the longest time I wanted to be an archeologist. I was (and still am) fascinated by history.

I loved Geography and History. I loved learning about the earth and where everything was and loved learning about people and places and all the history in each place. I also was pretty good in art class. I won a few contests and rewards for some of my paintings in highschool. I used to be pretty creative, not so much anymore with a family to take care of. I would love a chance to win these books. Thanks

It was a toss up between history and science. I majored in biology in college, because it had more career opportunities, but I still love history.

My favorite in school is a toss up between Maths and Biology. Loved the genetics part of Biology. Wanted to become a biotech but ended up in computer science!

English, World History, and Home Economics. I wanted to speak well, read well, understand well, and eat well : )
