One’s favorite subject in school can reveal a lot about his or her personality, since different subjects can display many different values and allow for people to experience different ways of learning. Because some people may enjoy different subjects that involve these different styles of learning, understanding, or practicing, one’s favorite subject can show their personality. Different subjects spotlight different skills that students favor and succeed in while also displaying their priorities. As Ashley Chavez (9) said, “Most of my friends that like Math are very similar and are interested and involved in the same things in school and outside of school.”

 

People who enjoy science are very curious and are very good at time management. They enjoy working with hands-on projects and in experiments. They are also very detail oriented.
