If anyone's wondering, mine are history (terribly written textbooks that never got to the point, just listed events I was supposed to memorize), art (please paint exactly like this), sports (graded on how well you can already do x exercise)

I read a lot more literature once I wasn’t forced to find the “hidden meaning.”
-
cool that you can enjoy that now! I liked literature in school and still like it now. I feel like the things I learned in class help me get more out of my reading.
-
Strangely, I feel that my having to analyse literature now makes me look at real life with a more focused lens. Books now I just read for pleasure.

Running. I was terrified by PE because I was rubbish and it was embarrassing. Started running when I was 20. I'm still slow as hell but I enjoy it & have run 4 x half marathons
-
wow, impressive! Glad you found out it was for you after all!

Couldn't stand Welsh classes in secondary school, now I can't stop researching Welsh mythology, history and it's language, go figure!

sounds great!

Science. Hated it. Ended up in bottom set and made to feel thick. Appreciate it way more but damage done means I don't really want to learn about it. Rather devote energy to encouraging my daughter.
-
That's great that you're encouraging her! I think current generations have access to some means of making learning interesting that we and people before us didn't have, e.g. youtube channels that explain stuff in fun ways.
-
Science here also. Now I’m spending/spent my late 20s working at two of the world’s largest science museums/research centers. No one saw that coming.

I agree! I just started reading fiction books at 24 y/o. In school we could never read fiction without writing a book report, which ruined the whole fun.
-
Ha, I'm different. I sometimes miss the assignments that helped me work through a book or story and really find out what it's about (for me at least). I guess this is why book clubs are a thing that exists!
-
It doesn't feel like work to dissect the information. Especially not having to write it up, be critiqued, have it graded, turned in on time. Those are the fun suckers.

German. I hated German in primary school. Now I think it's fucking awesome.
-
Learning languages can be so rewarding when you get past the "I'm 12 years old. I'm from London. I like to play the piano" stage!
-
Even now after more than 20 years, whenever I meet anyone from Germany or France, I have to ask them the way to the post office. Also discovered a love of history and literature in the years since.

Fernando Pessoa (Portuguese writer with multiple heteronyms) became much more interesting to read about when it stopped being a mandatory study subject for the Portuguese exams.
-
And middle school's Physics&Chemistry (among other reasons) managed to kill my wish to become a scientist. Maybe it was too complicated for me. Or too dull, impossible to focus on. I expected more experiments.
-
that's interesting - for me, the experiments were the worst part, and I would have loved to learn more theory! Experiments never quite worked like they were supposed to, and without theory I didn't always understand *why* I was doing those experiments in the first place.
-
It might be that highschool science classes did a bad job presenting the experimental method. My favourite part of neuroscience classes in university was discussions of how theory and method could come together into some amazingly elegant experiments.
-
Cool! I'm jealous, we never got that at my school
