Do you prefer history, geography, english, or one of the social sciences? Classics possibly, or languages?


I like History the most (clearly). In one way I don't even know why, it's just an incredibly enthralling subject. I guess I like the story element, the tales of real people and how they lived, but also with my political hat on history is so, so important for seeing how the world at present has become the way it is. If you don't know the cause of a problem, it's often futile trying to solve it.

I'm especially interested in the "History" and "Ancient Language" sections. I aim to either be a Historian/History Teacher. Either that, or a Video Game designer :P

I've voted history but my favourite is psychology ...

I'd argue that psychology's a science not a humanity.

Oh sorry ... I must have misinterpreted something...

Well the social sciences (Sociology, Psychology, etc) are a bit of a grey area; Psychology and how the brain works is a bit closer to Biology and science though, whereas Sociology touches on Anthropology and History more and so is more of a humanity IMO.

History of course! I love to know what has happened in the past, for what they fought, what they did, etc ....

History does seem to be winning, yea. :)
