      My favourite was actually art because I could think about science and draw ancient creatures and not have to play by the science rules. But I could also just draw space marines and transformers or whatever too. I’ve taken a lot of the artistic skill and thinking into science and they have been a real help. Like being able to observes things closely and thinking in three dimensions.

      Hi, I liked science the best at school because I had great teachers. But in your future career you’re not limited to following the subjects you’ve enjoyed most at school – it’s great to think about which parts of each subject you enjoy (e.g. being creative, thinking logically etc) and finding a course of study/job that involves lots of those types of skills rather than the knowledge. Any knowledge, if you are interested in the subject, can be picked up afterwards.

      My favourite subject was English. I grew up in The Netherlands, so English is not my first language. In Dutch high schools, all children learn English as a foreign language. I liked this class because the teachers would let us watch loads of American and British TV in class, as it’s a good way to learn the language!

      I enjoy Biology when I was at school. I had excellent Biology instructors and the classes were always very interesting. My school used to have limited resources so I couldn’t perform all the experiments that I wanted to do. Most of the things I learnt were theories from textbooks. This experience made me developed an interest in conducting experiments and finding answers.
