  • Sozialwissenschaften (social sciences/ politics and economics), compared to everything else was non trivial and not tedious content. Math and physics and CS are nice and all but talking about current Events and interpreting them using certain models was always the most fun for me. With the slight downside of having to remember all the nomenclature.

    I never would have written a 20+ page homework for any other subject, but for this sowi course I dug myself through the Israeli Arab conflict in as much depth as you need to get a good general overview, and I was having fun doing it.

    It helped a lot that I picked the course because I knew which teacher it was going to be held by, and that the teacher was genuinely very good.

  • History, which I later went on to get my degrees in. As for why, I believe it was 100% due to how awesome my APUSH history teacher was in high school

  • History, one of two teachers I got that wasn't a total asshole and he was cool, Mr Wilkens. " And "Values and standards" (don't know how to translate it differently, we had it instead of religion), the teacher was the other human being in our school. All other teachers were sick nutcases and / or simply assholes. RIP Mr Lehrke, the small grey guy who talked with me for hours about kabbalah, mysticism and all that other stuff I was into. And he liked the cheap discount beer, like me :) He was the reason I went to University. Solely.

  • Information and Technology lol. You'd think I'd take a major in computer science, right? But I actually despised math so I went to art school instead. Though I must say I feel like I didn't like math because I suspect that I have what is basically mild dyscalculia (undiagnosed), for lack of a better term, and I'm learning some coping skills.

  • Physics, biology(until we got to cells and I lost track) and theatre.
    The last one was nice because I got to let loose and be myself ironically enough :)

  • English isn't the native language where I'm from so I liked English classes the most. It was fun flexing my English skills to others that couldn't speak it very well.

  • Math. The problems are hard but if you know math, you can do lots of stuff with it. Though I can't say I am good at memorizing formulas.
