Favorite: Math (I was good at it LOL)

Least: History (too many dates to remember and I couldn't figure out what it had to do with anything I needed to know in life).

I love history now.

Least favourite - maths

Don't think I really had a favourite. I've been asked this a hundred times and am never really clear on an answer. I suppose history.

I almost picked that as my least favourite for that very reason! LOL

All of the dates drove me crazy. I mean why should I care what date something happened, when all I really needed to know that it happened, period!

And like you, I
history now! And I think the reason I do is because I couldn't care less what date things happened on. I'm more interested in that it happened and how it affected change. I don't pay attention to the dates anymore.

REALLY good point - I think that must be why I enjoy it now - the remembering the date part isn't the point.

I know just as long as you got the event and the names correct, that's all that should matter!
