When you were in school, what was your most hated subject?

Math. I have a decent enough understanding of the basics of it, but I always had trouble with the more complicated stuff. Also, it was just so damned boring. Also, I also can't remember any math class teaching me useful information like how to calculate a 15 percent tip or how to balance a check book. It was always stuff that I've never used in real life. The most complicated thing I learned in math that I've applied to the real world is some very basic algebra or long division, the latter of which I can do with a calculator a lot faster than in my head or with a pen and paper.
I apologize for the long winded rant.

In high school (Secondary school), I took a computer programing class which I hated. We were learning basic which isn't hard but the teacher was about as helpful as reading a book on the subject. I also hated writing classes. I'm a perfectionist so by the end of the year I would only get through half of each assignment before I had to do the next one, which would also only get half done.

English and History,Hated to write long essays and read books I didn't care for and in History I was bored out of my mind.
[color=#006FFF]This exactly. I despise writing long papers (unless it's a topic of my own choice) and the history we learned in High School was either very broad or just too precise and an overload of information. The only History class I've ever enjoyed was last year, History of Rome, despite it being a difficult class.

Last year of high school and now they start throwing these curve balls. in about a year I'll post on this thread again and say i hate everyone of my college classes.

I have to say so far that it's Art and Psychology for me. The classes would have been interesting if not for the horrible teachers I had that just ruined the entirety of both subjects for me. In art she told us that sixty percent of our grade was based on our attitude... yeah, just how much she liked us really. Then my Psychology teacher tried to prove the existence of psychic powers not acknowledged by the professionals who wrote any of the books she used to teach us, heck one of them even stated outright that psychic powers were fake. Not to mention that my Psychology teacher was incredibly childish and lashed out at me when I told her I didn't believe in psychic powers. Once she looked over at me while lecturing the class and said "Well SOME people in this class can explain EVERYTHING with numbers".
Now both are completely ruined for me, so those are the only subjects I can really say that I dislike right now.

Physics and maths.
But the physics class wasn't that bad because of the teacher and the classmates. I just hated the theory.
Maths on the other hand I used to enjoy, then I had to have one of the worst math teacher in the school in my final year. He was stuck up and constantly looked down on the class.

I liked almost every class in highschool, and I wasn't really BAD at anything because I studied a lot, but geometry frustrated me. Axioms and proofs based off "must be true" status are silly. There is no room for "it has to be true or everything falls appart" in math. A proof needs to be provable, not based on the assumption that it should be. non-Euclidean doesn't have this problem, but the standard HS geometry curriculum is based on a lot of not-so-mathematical assumptions.

English and Math. I remembered I had a English teacher that nearing the end of the school year, gave us essays everyday. And for Math, I'm just plain horrible at it.

I hated Math for almost my entire life because I sucked at it except in the seventh and nineth grade. The former because I got tutoring and became a good student and the latter because my teacher didn't really question us individually and I had completely checked out from that whole school year.
I also hated having P.E. and most of the times I was nervous before the class started but as soon as it began, I started to love it and I was rather good at it but for some reason, I never wanted it...

Art appreciation. I passed with one of the highest grades in the class, but only learned that I have nothing but sheer disdain for modern art and artists.

English...
It still doesn't make one bit of since to me. I can't distinguish any basic ideas or principles to build off of. I can't figure out how the whole thing works.
Most of the time teachers just say "Read it again" and then ask, "did that sound right?" I then answer "I see nothing wrong with it." At this point they usually give up and give me the correction and I write it down.
Once I got to college my english prof said that it was like my language skills never developed properly, and I made the same mistakes that some ESL people make. This was after working super hard with him every single day. I had to look up sentence structure in boks and attempt to copy it, eve nthen the "flow" from sentence to sentence didn't work out well.

I hated everything about school and high school and uni.
I hated teachers, students, books, building, ground on witch said building was standing and so oon.
And if at any point i would get superpowers first thing i would do is destroy every atom of said structures... and after that conquer the world and become supreme commander and king of lowly earthlings... yep that's good plan.
