      That’s a good question. I wasn’t a fan of PE because I wasn’t very good at sports. I also didn’t get the best grades in English, even though I did enjoy it.

      My worst was definitely PE – I hated having to be outside in the cold so I mostly refused to participate! I also really struggled with maths at school, but managed to get my head around the parts that are important for doing biology

      English – I love reading and writing, but I wasn’t very good at seeing hidden meanings and having particularly deep insights into the literature! I actually still really love reading; after all, it isn’t just about getting good grades, sometimes it’s just nice to read something you enjoy for the sake of it.

      My worst was art -my painting skills are terrible, and they have only gotten worse. Still, we are not meant to do/be good at everything – we just need to find out what we are good at.

      Definitely PE, I wasn’t very sporty back then.

      I didn’t like physics; we focused on space a lot and I just didn’t get the fuss (I prefer things on this planet!). I use physics more now though and enjoy it!

      History – as I didn’t like to memorise long chronology.

      I was a nerd and I liked to study, so I didn’t have any particular difficulty. However, history was my weakest point.

      I’ll agree with a few others here and also say PE! I was never particularly sporty, and wouldn’t say I am now either.

      I struggled the most with Chemistry (which might be surprising since I decided to follow a career in science). Goes to show you don’t have to be excellent at all aspects of science even if it’s what you want to study after school!

      Definitely chemistry for me I’m not sure why but it never really clicked for me and I also wasn’t super interested in it either. Still managed to get through compulsory chemistry units in my uni degree but it wasn’t my most enjoyable subject.

      Definitely PE! I can see that many people have answered that! Also at times I struggled with physics although I ended up having a 10/10 in the end of high school exam (similar to the British A levels)

      My worst was Maths. There were some parts I just could not get. Thankfully I passed Higher Maths so did not need repeat it.
