re: What was your hardest REQUIRED class in high school?

I was never great at math. Once I got into trigonometry and calculus I was having issues. Funny enough, I aced the one college math class I needed to take and also aced the two accounting courses.

Religion

Physics because it is such a hard subject to teach to teenagers. New concepts that include math skills and critical thinking, plus formulas that don’t really apply to anything in a teen’s life.

I bet there are more bad physics teachers than bad physics students.

Algebra. Teacher was a sadistic bitch. Started with 35, in two weeks we were down to 12.

One guy got on her nerves and she put his desk in the middle of the room and she walked in a circle around it lecturing. Every time she turned her back he’d do all manner of things. Flip her off, make faces, she knew he was doing something because we’d start laughing, but she never caught him at it.

I loosely call her a teacher. She just threw it out there, if you got it you got it, if you didn’t she got to fail you. LOVED 4 question tests.

Psych/Soc

It was difficult for me because my father has a doctorate in Sociology from an Ivy League university and even back then he realized that that whole academic track had been high jacked by left wing fascists and had become complete political bullshite.

At least he wasn’t mad when I had average grades for that required bullshite. Fortunately for me it was last quarter senior year and I was already admitted into a good college.

Private school in Alabama. Our football coach taught the Latin class. Calculus was bad enough, but English Lit. sucked arse. Bunch of my buddies had to peace out and finish at Marion Institute or flunk a grade. 100-95A 94-85B 84-75C 74-70D.

There were zero hard classes in High school.
