Biology is one of my favorite subjects.
Behind Economics of course.

Re: Is chemisty freaking awesome?

I did chem for a few weeks and didn't really enjoy it. Then again, we did very little for that time, some stuff about mining and definitions of the basics. I probably would have liked the equations and stuff.

But I like bio because I can constantly relate it to life. I would argue that bio requires a lot less memorisation than some people are making out. For me, it's a lot of common sense. You need to do a bit of reading the text book to understand concepts but I do extremely little, if not no, rote learning. An old teacher I know and my auntie say that Bio seperates the true smarties from the herds that rote learn. (but I probably like to quote this because I am good at bio so I am biased). Understanding, rather than memorisation is essential in bio. One girl in my class studies more than anyone else but got 27% in the last test.

But I do think that the science preferences, are just that - personal preferences.

chem can be related to life, its not until you do the subject itself that you actually understand how much better we are with it, how much we use it in our life is amazing, and the same for physics.
