What Are Your Academic Strengths?

Post Reply New Topic

Art! I do find it pretty difficult, though, as I haven't had any sort of art class since preschool.

Probably music, although I think I'm pretty well versed in a lot of other areas.

I chose the Fine Art option; Language and Gender Studies were close runners up, though. I'm going to list each, just for for my own interest.

physics, chemistry, applied math - Nope, forget about it, Not happening. I struggle with subtraction and addition.
languages, writing (fiction or non-fiction), linguistics - I can learn to read languages, but can never speak them properly (not surprising, eh). I have been told that I am a great writer, but I am very self-critical.
logic, pure math, theoretical computer science - Decent with logic and computer stuff if I put my mind to it.
engineering, IT - IT would be a possibility, but I'm not sure.
life sciences, medicine, pharmacology - Not unless it is a temporary and very narrow special interest in that area.
political science, economics - Zero interest.
philosophy - I may have outgrown it in a sense, but I used to be fairly knowledgeable in that area.
fine art, music, photography - Photography is my thing; art and music I am okay at, but perfectionism works against me when it comes to putting anything into practice in this area,
media, communications, journalism - Ha!
performing arts: film, dance, theater - I'm a great critic of these things, but am terrible at actually doing them.
education, psychology, sociology - Decent.
anthropology, archaeology - Not a lot of interest, so I'm not sure.
business, law, international relations - Don't care.
ethnic studies, gender studies, cultural studies - Yes, especially gender studies. This is a pretty big interest of mine.
earth science, meterology, environmental studies - I like to read about them, but am not particularly good at retaining the knowledge.
history, geography - Once again, am interested, but it's kind of in one ear and out the other.
decorative art, woodshop, metalshop - I am generally pretty good a crafting and cooking and such, so I would say yes in this area.
