      I prefer the bits in the middle of all three, though mostly the overlap between chemistry and physics.

      My favourite is chemistry, but I like the parts of chemistry that overlap with physics and engineering!

      My favourite is Chemistry and any aspects of Science that overlap with Engineering.

      In school, my favourite was always physics, but now I sit very firmly on the line between physics and biology – using physics to measure parts of the human body. I do use a little bit of chemistry at work though!
      I think if I had to pick a favourite, it would still be physics because outside of work, I love learning about space!

    I love physics best – it all depends on who you are though. My brother much prefers biology.

    I’m a big science enthusiast, my bias is towards biology but I love seeing cool things from across the three. The RI christmas lectures have been a staple in our house since I was little. I listen to a lot of comedy, science and science comedy podcasts on my commute. At school, I think I enjoyed chemistry more, the experiments were more hands on. Like burning magnesium or colour change titrations!

    Personally, I struggled with biology because whilst I found learning about human biology useful, I did not enjoy learning about plants. I liked chemistry but struggled a bit with the practical experiments. Physics was my favourite as it is just applied maths.
