What was your favourite subject in school?

I don't think this answer is going to surprise anyone. It was chemistry. For me, experimental chemistry still can’t be beat for combining fun + intellectual stimulation.

I'd actually have guessed physics for you, but chemistry makes sense too.

I did enjoy physics, too, just not as much as chemistry; the labs had a big impact on me. The chemistry ones were a lot of fun and the supervision was light touch for high school, looking back on it.

All six of my A Level science teachers (two each for Biology/Chemistry/Physics) were very relaxed, and that probably helps attract people to making a career of it, I suspect.
