I was good at math, algebra especially.I think it was that I am musician and they say we have to learn to count to play, so we use math already.I never really get into reading until I was old enough to read Jacqueline Susann and Sidney Sheldon. I never got into science. I really could care less why things are the way they are or how things evolved.

are they Jacqueline Susann and Sidney Sheldon famous in your country? i haven't heard them before.introduce some of their books to me to read.because i am in summer holiday now.i have plenty of time. i can guess you are a musician since your avatar is a note.i guess maybe you are good at music or something else.

They were real popular in the late 70's and early 80's. These days, they are not as popular.Jacqueline Susann is best known for her book Valley Of the Dolls. It was made into a movie.But the book I liked was Once is Not Enough.It was made into a movie too but the book is far better than the movie. Warning. These books have some explicit love scenes. So if they are R rated.With Sidney Sheldon, some of his books were made into t.v. movies in the 80's. His books are more PG13 rated.These are three titles I remember , Bloodline, Other side Of Midnight and Rage Of Angels. Back in the day, I was pretty good playing the violin and guitar. These days I am so rusty.

Math and foreign languages are my best subjects! Still are, although I have learned to do better at all subjects.

Art-I have a very wild imagination and it's cool to create things. Theater-I consider myself a natural at this. (Not to sound vain or anything.) It's a lot of fun portraying a character. Phy. Ed/Sports classes-Well, I consider myself somewhat athletic. I'm pretty good at volleyball and hockey. Others, I just get better at with time. (Tennis.) Spelling-It's always come easy for me and I don't know why.

I did fairly well in Math and English, because I enjoyed both of those subjects.. I wish that I had paid more attention to algebra and geography, but I didn't and am now learning about those two if and when the need arises.. Part was a gift and part was very hard work..

I believe the gift part was more of a factor as I was like all other teens in school, we had better things on our mind at the time..

When i was in school,i was good at mathematics.I scored merely all A2 for my tests and exams.I was praised by my teachers and parents.They congratulate me with nice words.I felt appreciated until i cried when being praised.Seriously,my victory in scoring well,is because of my hardwork in practising a lot of mathematical sums.I pay my full attention in class when my teacher is teaching with hope to understand.Sometimes ,i do not understand a single thing but i take my own iniatives to approach my teacher or fellow classmates to assist me.I even save up money to buy myself a reliable assesment book to practise.When i am at home,i do not spend my time unnecessarily but i take that time as my revision time.In this issue,time is also the main concern.Good time management is the best way to spend your time well.I persuade myself with inspiration words to do at least five mathematical questions each day.So,at the end of my long journey of hardwork,i finally succced.Truly,i felt it is a honour to gain the best results after all that i have done.

The subjects I excelled at were Language (straight A's) and Science (nothing lower than a B). Math is my kryptonite!

Hi friend, I love physics,hindi and average in other subjects except i am poor in biology.Its really a mystery.I am unable to draw nicely like others,so i always get bad marks in biology like 13 out of 25.My feel sad by seeing that marks but in final exams i got very good marks compare to other subjects.Its really makes me feel happy.I will never forget those days. Have a nice day.

Math and chemistry when I was in grade school as well as in my high school years.I think it's both a gift but it sometimes requires hardwork also.hehe

Hi xialinye.. I love maths a lot... I like maths bcoz each sum in maths is different and i like trying out different things... At the early days of my school days, i never understood maths but later on i tried out different sums each day and became strong in it.. other than maths i have equal interest in all subjects.. have a great day... CHEERS!!!

I was good in Biology.that is because it requires least understanding and maximum mugging up.In biology you don't need to solve any problem as in maths or physics.

There were subjects that I liked and then subjects that I was good at but they were two very different things!I loved english and french,but I can only recall a smattereing of french now,much to my annoyance.sometimes when I have a mo I try to recall the french for different words....geography wasnt too bad either..but maths was where I failed miserably...they put the sums in front of me and there they stayed,,for the love of me I couldnt make head nor tail of them..

I was good at those subjects I like, like maths, physics, computer and English. Maybe it was personal interest, or it could be the lecturers / teachers, who made the lessons interesting, that it was no effort to remember what was taught in class.
