• Question: did you like science at school and do you think what we learn about science in school is intersting or limiting?

      I only started to enjoy science subjects when I was revising for my GCSE’s. I didn’t enjoy them much at school. I particularly liked chemistry and biology, which is what I chose to study at A-level along with maths. I particularly liked the problem-solving in chemistry and all the chances we got to do any experiments. Biology was cool too because you’d learn about topics that you could actually see in your day-to-day. I don’t think any topic is limiting, as you will learn basics of all the topics and can choose to specialise in ones that you like the most later on.
